To Mr Draper, and the staff and pupils at Yoxall St Peter’s,

I hope you are keeping safe and well during this trying time.

I just wanted to get in touch to say thank you so much to you all for your support of Crisis over the Christmas period. 2020 was a tough year for many of us, showing us just how much we depend on each other for connection, hope and support in difficult times. It also reminded us how essential a safe and secure home is, for our physical and mental wellbeing.

Through the fundraising you’ve done, you will be raising vital funds to support those experiencing homelessness. We’ve also been really inspired by reading Jack’s story too!

At Crisis we have been working on some fun and engaging resources to help young people learn about homelessness and the importance of a safe and secure home for everyone. The activities we have developed are ‘covid friendly’ and can be done in a virtual classroom as well as at home with parents over the weekend and the holidays. They can be found on our website.

We would love to hear any feedback you have on these resources and what else might be useful to have available. I’d really appreciate any thoughts you or the team might have around this.

Kindest regards,

Katie
