Playing a part at Kings College, Cambridge
An event 10 years in the making
What an incredibly heartwarming event. š
Who knew that all this was possible in 10 years?!
Cambridge Acorn Project is a charity offering therapeutic work with children and families, and they just celebrated their 10th anniversary. š
From supporting one child to over 500 children and families. š³
In September, I shot interviews with Matt Edge, Hannah Chapman, PhD, Kathryn Smythe, Shannon Barnard, Nina Rogers and Hannah Golding about their amazing work with the charity. š
(I've been busy cutting down 3 hours of footage into 5 minutes!) āļø
Friday at Kings College, Cambridge, the edited video was played to an audience of volunteers, fundraisers and contributors. š„
A great cause
It was just incredible to see how many people had worked and helped to reach this milestone.
I've learned so much over the last month about how serious this issue is.
š "Inequality is on the rise. There are many areas in Cambridgeshire that are in the 10-20% most deprived areas in the UK."
š "There are 14,000 children in Cambridgeshire alone who've experienced multiple adverse childhood experiences."
It really opened my eyes to why this service is needed so much, but also understanding the life-changing impact the people in that room have made.
