We are proud to have been named Community Hero Award winners at the 2026 Runnymede Business Awards, recognising our work alongside children, young people and families across the borough.

The award was presented at Royal Holloway, University of London during an afternoon celebrating the organisations, businesses and individuals making a positive difference in Runnymede.

Anna and Karen from our team were honoured to accept the award on behalf of colleagues across the charity. It was a proud moment to celebrate the dedication, compassion and expertise that our staff and volunteers bring to their work every day.

Across Runnymede, we work alongside schools, families, local authorities and community partners to help children and young people feel safe, heard and supported. Through programmes including Safer Streets, we have seen the difference that prevention and early help can make, ensuring young people can access support at the right time and creating stronger, safer communities.

As we look ahead, this recognition strengthens our resolve to continue delivering prevention and early help services across Runnymede and beyond.

We know that when children and young people receive the right support at the right time, they are better able to navigate challenges, build healthy relationships and look forward to brighter futures.

Thank you to the organisers of the Runnymede Business Awards and to everyone who supports our mission of helping young people in Surrey.
