Lost in Space

Two years ago, I found myself in space – flying headfirst down a tricky slab of rock on a mountain in Namibia heading to a certain bad ending.?I promised myself that if I survived, I would pay the price.?Miraculously, I got out of it in one piece and waited for the opportunity to put something back in a meaningful way.

Two months ago, I was approached by an amazing charismatic charity leader ?- Sam Lee - from a new formed charity –?CCBF -??https://ccbf.co.uk/ ?CCBF is a brand new second tier charity supporting front line voluntary sector organisations across the UK.

Sam has worked with me in the past on inner-city gang violence reduction work.?She has enormous courage and a great energy and sense of dedication to support charities that are engaged in much needed work in the inner cities.?She managed to convince me that my payback would be to fund and run a leadership program for inner-city charity leaders (She is very good at convincing people to do the right thing!)

She has already engaged 12 amazing leaders to join the leadership course in the Lake District in March all free of charge and is keen to set up more similar events in 2022.

CCBF are currently supporting a host of different vital organisations working with: children in poverty, young people living in deprivation, gun and knife crime, food Banks, addiction , adults with learning disabilities, Persecution, children with learning disabilities, , vulnerable adults, race equality and mental health and has already raised over ￡20,000 for charities. All this with very little funding.

If you could just help right now with just giving donation to the charity, I can promise you that it would be probably the best investment you have ever made – and also – it would save me from falling headfirst down any more mountains ??

If you'd like to donate to our start up costs please do so here:?https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/CCBF?In this vital start-up phase any donations will be very much value.

Many thanks John Peck
