Once Upon a Smile
Charlotte from Once upon a Smile visited the empowerment group at Wardle Academy to hear about all the hard work they have put in this year and how they have been raising money for Once Upon a Smile. The group handed over a large amount of money to the charity and they were able to hear about the amazing things that the money is going to go towards. The empowerment group have also been invited into Once Upon a Smile in September to hear more about the Charity and how they can do some more fundraising.
The empowerment group has worked incredibly hard this year giving up their spare time and it has been fantastic to watch them grow in resilience, confidence and self-esteem. The group will be leading the next cohort in the next school year and will be working towards a leadership qualification.
Well done!
