In place of our holiday challenges, we have introduced our …The HIVE proactively
seeks solutions to the issues that negatively affect people’s lives by taking a
long-term strategic view. Our team at The HIVE reaches out and gives
opportunities to vulnerable people unable to make life chances for themselves.
The work of The HIVE helps local children realise what kind of adults they can
be. It is not good enough to apply sticking plasters onto vulnerable adults
without having first attempting to guide and nurture young people who dare to
dream of better lives for themselves. Mark’s Story Mark had huge problems at
school. He had little social skills to be able to cope with learning and as a
result was unfocussed and behaved aggressively. He was at real risk of
exclusion. The team at The HIVE encouraged his involvement in Croydon Children’s
University™. Mark has been a success story, wanting to come to the activities,
wanting to learn and build up his points. Both school and his parent’s say
Mark’s participation in Croydon Children’s University™ has made a huge
difference to both his behaviour and the way he is now able to cope with all
that life throws at him. He is no longer at risk of exclusion from school.
