£25K target reached – means key youth charity can survive

Bromley charity JusB who faced closure at the beginning of this year is very pleased to announce that it has reached its target of raising £25,000 before the end of June. Raising this sum before the deadline ensures that it will be matched pound for pound by a generous donor, Roger Paice. JusB staff have worked exceptionally hard to ensure that the target was achieved, but it would not have been possible without the support of groups and individuals who have been very generous in their giving.

JusB Project Manager, Ned McWhirter says:

“This is wonderful news and I am delighted for everyone who has been involved in this campaign and very grateful to all those who support us. It was extremely touching when we got gifts from those who were giving whatever they could afford, especially in these difficult times. I am also delighted for the young people of Bromley because it means JusB can still be there for them when a number of other advice and youth centres in the borough are closing down”.

With this good news the JusB centre can now start thinking about running a summer programme for young people; this will involve three weeks of adventure activities like rowing, high ropes and dry ski slopes (please contact the centre for details).
