This morning Ffion and Amy visited The Lewis School. Year 7 students are currently taking part in the First Give programme as part of their English lessons, and they’ve chosen to support Caerphilly People First. Through the First Give programme, the students will be carrying out social actions to support us and our work in the community 💪💬

We delivered a presentation about what we do at Caerphilly People First, what a First Give grant is, and how we would use £1,000 to make a real difference 🌱🍳🎶 A First Give grant is funding that students can win by planning and delivering social action projects that support a local charity or community group, helping them create positive change. The students asked lots of fantastic questions and showed a genuine interest in our work – it was brilliant to see such enthusiasm and compassion 💙

We’re really looking forward to attending the finals on Friday 🤞⭐ Good luck to all the students – you’re doing amazing things for your community!
