Great Big Walk for Herts 2024

Evidence shows that being educated in core life skills early on in life gives children the best chance of developing the resilience, confidence and practical skills to navigate life on and off line, empowering them to make changes to last a lifetime. 

Coram Life Education is the UK’s leading charity provider of Personal, Social, Health and Economic education and we have 35 years’ experience delivering engaging  education programmes. Our vision is for children to acquire the life skills needed to thrive. We work with 2,800+ primary schools in local communities across the country, reaching 590,000 children through our online resources called ‘SCARF’ (representing our values for children of Safety, Caring, Achievement, Resilience and Friendship), and high quality, educator-led workshops.

Across Hertfordshire and Essex, our two educators – Nancy and Katy - deliver education workshops in 60 schools a year, reaching 13,000 pupils. In Hertfordshire alone we reach 22 schools and 4,800 children. Our team goes way beyond the curriculum to help children understand, explain and regulate emotions, equip them to navigate risk, to stay safe on and off line, and to develop healthy relationships, in preparation for adolescence and adulthood. Our approach develops children’s knowledge, skills, attitudes and values, and is designed to give pupils a voice and for them to feel empowered, able to identify and articulate their needs and feelings and to make healthy choices. Harold, our healthy-living giraffe mascot, helps to convey these messages to children, within a magical learning environment. 

Please support our team across Hertfordshire, and help us support more children.
