Delivering life skills and drug education across the UK.

Life Skills Education C.I.C. is a national community interest company based in Nottinghamshire whose work is well embedded in the East Midlands, London and within Ministry of Defence and military bases in the UK and abroad.

Our aim is to develop and deliver a range of educational resources to help children and young people acquire and use the knowledge, understanding and skills that equip them to live safe, healthy and productive lives in a world where drugs are common place.

WHY NOT WORK WITH US TO PROMOTE YOUR COMPANY AND HELP MOVE DARE FORWARD?

All commercial companies know the value of exposure to the right audience and the benefit of being linked to a “good cause”.  We are looking for appropriate partners to help us take Life Skills Education, and particularly our DARE suite of programmes, forward.   At the same time we are offering just the sort of exposure and “good news stories” that come with links to a worthwhile organisation such as ours.

We currently operate in over 250 primary schools in the East Midlands, London and the North East, with expansion plans to cover the whole Country within the next two years. From September we will be launching our secondary school programme which we will again be looking to introduce to schools throughout the Country.  In addition we provide DARE lessons to schools in the Falklands, St Helena and Ascension Island, as well as MoD schools in Germany, Malta, Cyprus and Gibraltar.

We have partnership funding levels to suit all budgets and requirements.  To know more, please click on here.  We would love to welcome you as a new partner.
