Hello and welcome to the first High Trees' Newsletter! We're pleased to have a place to share monthly news and updates with you. Here you'll find a roundup of what we've been up to this month as well as details about upcoming events, courses and activities.  

We're launching this newsletter at an exciting time for High Trees, after months of remote learning, zoom activities and isolation we're finally returning to face-to-face services! We're proud of how well our users, young people and community all adjusted to online life with the help of our 
Digital Hub project, but we can't wait to get back out there this spring.

Pre-Employment Training with Arriva! 
We are pleased to be repeating our Bus Driver Pre-Employment Training with Arriva again this month after a huge success with the course earlier in the year. Within 3 weeks of doing the last course, 50% of attendees from High Trees have a job offer with Arriva or another company in a driving role. You can learn more about the course and register below. 
This is a great opportunity for any learners who are looking for a career as a bus driver.  We have loved collaborating with Arriva on this course and we are always open to working with new employers. To hear more about working with us get in touch at support@high-trees.org.
 
Our Employment and Careers Job Club has also returned on Thursdays

Easter Fun at the Adventure Playground! 
It was great to finally welcome back young people to the Adventure Playground over the Easter holidays! Our new and improved zip wire provided lots of thrills and the young people enjoyed baking
flapjacks, racing go-karts and even playing dodgeball in the snow! We can't wait to continue the fun with our after-school and Saturday sessions that
re-open this week, register your interest for yourself or someone else below.

Community Action: St Martin's Tenant's Damp Campaign

As part of High Trees’ ongoing support of St. Martin’s Tenant’s and Resident’s Association and their campaign to fix issues with widespread damp on the estate, we are pleased to share that the campaign has reached a major milestone. 

The TRA were successful in demanding an independent environmental inspection and the housing associations are now facing Legal Action from Lambeth Council to enforce the repairs.

High Trees' continued to work with the residents to support them to create a campaign strategy. At their recent meeting Cllr Braithwaite, Deputy Leader of the Council she praised residents' efforts in organising around the issue and driving progress. You can read more details about this campaign here.

If you're interested to learn more about community organising you can book a space on our training courses, or contact the Community Action Team.
