About the sponsors of this site

FAB is supported by the here to HELP awards, part of the Save the Children Fund. Below is some information provided by Save the Children including a link to their website.

The Save the Children here to HELP awards, funded by British Gas, inspire young people to make their local area a better place to live and offer them support to get active, make changes and enjoy themselves at the same time. Over a three year period, British Gas and Save the Children, through here to HELP, will fund up to 300 new projects identified by children and young people. This website is one of the funded projects.

In the past, groups of children and young people from England, Wales and Scotland have used their £1000 award to, amongst other things, make short films about bullying and racism, host photography exhibitions about the areas they live in and make music about staying safe on the street.
