Life Education
The Rotary Club of the Wreake Valley supported Rotarian David Brown when he was instrumental in establishing the "Life Education" charity during the 1990s and has continued to support him since that time.
The Charity provides Health Education to pupils in primary schools from ages four to twelve throughout Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland. It has hi tec mobile classrooms with trained educators who provide age related programmes as a resource for schools and communities. The programmes aim to provide awareness of health related matters including drug issues (both legal and illegal) whilst at the same time building a child's self esteem so that they have a greater knowledge of and ability to address such issues in teenage years and beyond.
