We’re on an ambitious growth journey, and we’re now looking for a Programme Lead to help shape the next phase of our impact.
Founded in 2020, we’ve delivered over 160 projects across London, with extraordinary results: 98% of older adults report improved emotional wellbeing, and 97% of children show significant development in social skills. With expert-designed sessions based on cognitive stimulation therapy and the EYFS framework, our model is evidence-led, highly engaging, and full of heart.
