Enfield Clubhouse

This afternoon we had the pleasure of Rashid and Emmanuel, two pupils from Turin Grove School in Edmonton, visiting us.  They wanted to know more about the goings on at Enfield Clubhouse to present their findings as part of their Youth and Philanthropy Initiative (YPI) school project.

"The Youth and Philanthropy Initiative (YPI) is an international programme designed to develop community leaders of the future and to raise awareness of the work of grassroots charities.

"Pupils are given a hands-on experience of philanthropy that highlights the positive impact they can have on their communities and provides them with the tools to lead."

After sharing lunch with us, Rashid and Emmanuel had a tour of the house learning about all the different things we do in the kitchen, house and garden, office and IT, community work and social activities.

Vedaste even showed them how to load our dishwasher!

Then we had a chat on the sofas and comfy chairs about how the organisation works - our aims and achievements, fundraising activities and "good news" stories. (If you're interested in these, you can take a look at our Annual Reports.)

We wish Rashid and Emmanuel good luck with their presentation to their classmates and hope that theirs will be considered the best one! (If you visit the link to the YPI you will know why!!!)

Whatever the outcome it was good to meet two new friends of the Clubhouse and we feel sure they will go on to better things themselves in the future.
