ERIC is pleased to report on the following events.
Charity Awards 2008
ERIC was the winner in the Children and Youth Category of the 2008 Charity Awards. The focus was ERIC's Water is Cool in School and Bog Standard campaigns, but ERIC's overall work was also applauded. The Charity Award judges were looking for examples of excellence from which other organisations can learn. They felt that ERIC was especially deserving of that recognition.
Fundraising Reception
ERIC held a Reception at the Inns of Court on 5 March 2008. Constance Briscoe, one of ERIC's Patrons, spoke about why she became involved with ERIC and her best-selling book, 'Ugly', in which she describes the abuse she experienced at the hands of her mother because she wet the bed. Representatvies from several charitable trusts and foundations attended, which we will hope boost ERIC's fundraising efforts. Thanks are due to everyone who contributed and attended. |
