We want to update our sports and games equipment. We would like to have a puppet show visit us and to buy craft materials to make puppets.

About this cause

We currently have 31 members from the local area aged between 5 and 16. We meet every Tuesday evening during term time and this year our theme is communication. We will learn sign language and about living with deafness and sight disabilities. We have arranged mobility specialists to visit us. We will be teaching the girls about respect for each other and how to use their words carefully. Our craft topic is puppetry and we hope to have a puppet show visit and then to make our own puppets and put on a show. Each year we support a charity and it will be the homeless/refugees this year. We also have a physical theme, which will be skipping, and we always play lots of games. It is a fun environment for girls to interact with new friends, gaining confidence and developing new interests.

How this cause brings people in the community together

We run a fun organisation for girls in our local area where they can make new friends and try out new crafts and physical activities. They learn about topics they will not cover in school and find new things they are interested in. Girls of different ages learn to interact with each other and grow in confidence.
