St Katharine & Shadwell Trust is the only funder that recognises the issues of working in the area. The Trust has been extremely supportive and has truly understood the issues facing many of the families living in the area. Without St Katharine & Shadwell Trust funding, we wouldn’t have been able to offer any of the support and development of training and I can say without a doubt, we would not have a training programme.
