The Harlequins Foundation are delighted to confirm that 4 organisations have successfully secured funding as part of the Foundations Brighter Futures Grant Programme. The Brighter Futures Grant Programme was established by the Foundation to provide support for local organisations, in the London Borough of Richmond to do something they couldn\u2019t ordinarily afford, such as the purchasing of equipment or the improvement of facilities. Following this year\u2019s round of applications, we are delighted to announce the successful applications are:<\/p>\n
Tag Youth Club\u2013 a local charity that offers young people with special education needs and disabilities a weekly opportunity to socialise and enjoy a range of activities from Ham Youth Club. This grant will enable them to purchase the eye gaze system, ultimately, making their sessions more accessible for young people.<\/p>\n
Grey Court School \u2013 a secondary Academy in Richmond, who aim to inspire, educate and encourage all pupils to become the best versions of themselves.
