SAFE@LAST has been awarded a grant of £2,500 from Sheffield Universities Give as You Rent Appeal. 

The Give As You Rent Appeal is run by the University of Sheffield and the Union of Students to support local organisations working with the homeless, vulnerable and displaced people in Sheffield.  The scheme has been running successfully since 1991. In total the students have raised, and subsequently given away, over £300,000.

SAFE@LAST was grateful to be awarded £2,500 pounds from the university when the students recognized the important work of SAFE@LAST with young runaways in South Yorkshire.  Grants like this are essential in enabling SAFE@LAST to continue its work with vulnerable children.

SAFE@LAST Operations Director Mark Smith, volunteer Vicky Nicholson received the cheque from Madeleine Whitehead (Charities Officer, Bummit Committee) and Ian Morrissey (Web Officer, Bummit Committee).
