Continuing The AWF’s Legacy: The Pilion Trust

This winter we will be supporting the Pilion Crash Pad shelter for the third year running, providing funding for all food costs, as well as 3 education projects including; Cannabis Awareness, Young Women’s self esteem workshops and Employability courses.

The foundation donated almost £20,000 last year at a time when the shelter, based at the Caledonian Road Methodist Church, was under threat of closure as it receives no statutory funds.

The shelter specialises in helping young people struggling with drink and drug abuse, which was why this year they wanted to focus their attention on providing those referred to the shelter with the information, tools and confidence to make more informed life decisions.

 

About the Amy Winehouse Foundation

In Amy’s memory, we work to inspire children and young people to build their self-esteem and resilience, so that they can flourish.

Our work is inspired by Amy’s spirit, her love of children and the challenges that she faced in her own life.

Today, the Amy Winehouse Foundation helps thousands of young people to feel supported and informed so that they are better able to manage their emotional wellbeing and make informed choices around things that can affect their lives.

We’re able to do this because of the support we receive from people like you. Anyone who believes in young people can become a part of our work and Amy’s legacy. By supporting our work, you will help them to transform their lives, flourish and be heard.
