Meet our facilitators!
Running the First Give social action programme in our partner schools across England and Wales would be impossible without our fantastic team of facilitators. They are the people who run First Give events in your schools such as the Launch Assembly, Presentation Skills Workshop, and the First Give Final. We wanted to introduce the team to you, our partners and supporters, because they are such an integral part of our charity and programme delivery.
