Thank you to THE LANKELLYCHASE FOUNDATION for awarding ssf a grant of £22,500 towards our work for each of the next 2 years and to THE ROBERTSON TRUST for awarding ssf a grant of £15,000 towards our work for each of the next 2 years. We are very grateful to both of these trust for their support and commitment to children's safety.
We still have to find an additional £30,000 for our work to be fully funded until March 2014. Please go to our "Donations" page to see how you can help.

THANK YOU TO THE ROBERTSON TRUST for awarding ssf a grant of £13,000 towards our work for April 2011 to March 2012. This goes a long way to meet our shortfall in funding for the year and we are very grateful to them for their support. However, we still have around £5,000 to find to be fully funded for the year.

Each year an Annual Review is produced which outlines the work carried out by the ssf. It also includes all the feedback from parents on what they think of the programme and how much their children have learned from the workshops. Click on the link below for our most recent Annual Review.

2010/11 Annual Review

2009/10 Annual Review

We issued questionnaires to head teachers and nursery staff at the end of the 2009/10 academic year to get a more holistic picture of how ssf is regarded in Highland and what the consequences might be if the service is reduced or withdrawn.  Early results were published in the 2009/10 Annual Review, however, several more have been returned since.  The complete analysis can be accessed on the links below.
