We would like to thank Pixel for supporting Counselling Plus to continue to offer professional counselling to local young people. Since our inception in 1992, the need for effective mental health support has hugely increased and whilst this is a positive change due to recognition of its importance, it does mean that we need additional support to meet this increased need.

We are very grateful to The Pixel Fund for its grant towards the costs of our Open Sessions project. During open sessions special schools and day centres that educate and care for children with special needs bring groups of up to 16 for play and learning – supported by both their own staff and Camp Mohawk’s own support staff. There are currently 42 schools and centres from a wide geographical area registered to visit - with many more requesting places.

Mudlarks are delighted to have received funding from the Pixel Trust to purchase a yurt for our Forest School. This 20 ft yurt will be able to accommodate the largest of groups as it seats up to 30 people. It is a much needed addition to our forest school and means we can offer a warm dry place to shelter in cold and wet weather. The yurt will also act as a very reassuring visible focal point for our children and young people to return to after enjoying exploring the woodland, and a hub for all to meet up in at break times.
