Ventures & Falcons

20/03/2026

With your help, a child’s life could change forever.

For many children, Falcon is their first holiday - a week of fun, friendship, and encountering God’s love.

In just one week, lives are transformed, hope, confidence and joy restored.

💛 We never want cost to be a barrier.
💛 More children need this opportunity.
🙏 Will you give today?

Your support makes these life-changing weeks possible.

We are thrilled to announce that we have achieved the Thirtyone:eight Safeguarding Standard Award, a nationally recognised safeguarding quality award, demonstrating our commitment to creating safer places.

CPAS believes that every person has inherent value and must be protected from harm. Safeguarding is integral to our mission, ministries and leadership, and is strengthened through openness, accountability and learning.

Achieving the award is not the end point, but a strong foundation on which to continue building a healthy, transparent, and values-led safeguarding culture.
