Red Balloon Learner Centre Group

Type: Charity - Charity

The aim of Red Balloons is the recovery of bullied children. We provide an ‘intensive care’ full-time education for children aged between 10 and 17 who are unable to go to school because they have been severely bullied. At least half of the students we take have attempted or seriously considered suicide. We promise the students whom we accept a safe environment with clear boundaries for behaviour, and an individual full-time academic, pastoral and therapeutic programme. Once the students have regained their confidence and are able to cope academically and socially, we support them in their return to mainstream school, their entry to further education or to employment.

    We had a wonderful evening at the House of Commons celebrating another year of Red Balloon successes and expansion. What made it even better was finally meeting the gorgeous Sophie Cox of Worldeka!

    What's Red Balloon all about? It's about every child's right to receive an appropriate education - not be left out on the scrap heap of society
