We are sad to hear about the closure of SMART CJS in Bedford. Over the years they have supported so many homeless people. Earlier this year we were lucky enough to to do our community project with them and they taught the young people so much. We thank them for their time and the support they have provided to those in need. It really is a loss to our local community.

A huge thank you to King's Trust Bedford Team for their kind donation to SMART.

As part of their project, young people from The King's Trust have created backpacks filled with books and throws for people accessing support through the Prebend Centre.

These thoughtful donations will make a real difference, offering comfort, warmth and something positive to focus on during difficult times.

The King’s Trust supports young people aged 11 to 30 to build confidence, develop skills and take their next steps in life. It has been brilliant to see that same energy and care being used to support people in our local community.

Later this year, the group will also be coming back to paint part of the Prebend Centre, helping us continue to make the building feel welcoming, safe and cared for.

Thank you to everyone involved. Your kindness and hard work are really appreciated.

We had the pleasure of Mohammad Yasin, joining our Summer Teams final presentation. The students were proud to show off what they had been up to and all that they accomplished.
As the new academic year starts, we will soon be welcoming a new group of young people to Team and we can only hope they get as much out of the course as the previous team did.

We are excited to announce that The Money Charity will be joining us to facilitate a Financial Wellbeing for Young Adults workshop for our King’s Trust Team programme.

We know that mastering money is a key step toward independence. That’s why we’ve brought in the experts! The team from The Money Charity will be leading an interactive, practical session designed to help our young adults build the confidence they need to manage their finances effectively.

We’ve officially reached the end of our current team, and what a 12 weeks it has been! Our students have worked tirelessly to give back to the community, and the community gave back in spades.

A huge shout-out to the local companies and individuals who:

💰 Provided generous donations for our projects.

🗣️ Took time to chat with and mentor our learners.

💼 Offered life-changing work placements.

The kindness we’ve experienced has been overwhelming. To our departing students: Well done! You’ve worked so hard, and we know you’re going to do amazing things in your next chapter.
