Escape Room with Focus 1st Academy Students

18 December 2024

We’re back from India and straight into our school trips! 🙌

We kicked off the week with a day at the escape room in Holloway with the students from Focus 1st Academy. This followed an earlier presentation with a promise of a day out somewhere exciting and it definitely was just that. The kids loved it and we finished off the day at McDonald’s for a bite to eat. 😋

It was an amazing day full of fun and laughter and we all had such a great time! We were surprised to be given a video of our day by these wonderful students who had put it together as a token of their gratitude for taking them out. It was our pleasure Focus 1st Academy.🙌

East Barnet go Ninja Warriors!

Saturday, 3 February 2024

Another successful day out at Ninja Warriors in Watford with 17 young people from East Barnet School who had a great time climbing the Warped Wall, swinging across obstacles or bouncing on inflatables.

It was amazing to watch the children having so much fun laughing, joking and chatting away without a mobile phone in sight. This is what our charity stands for – giving children the opportunity to detach from the online pressures and be reminded of the fun they can have together.

CCF Meets Focus 1st Academy

Monday, 11 December 2023

It was a pleasure to visit Focus 1st Academy and meet an impressive and welcoming group of teenagers who were keen to hear our experiences of cyber bullying and the dark web. Each and everyone listened intently to our story and wanted to know what we are doing to help deter other kids and families from experiencing this tragedy.

Whilst all the kids were amazing, one particular young man captured our attention who we will be sponsoring as part of the charity to undertake a special activity. More on this will be featured later.

We cannot stress enough the importance of relaying our message to teenagers who are at risk of online predators. One way of reaching children is through schools and we would appreciate your help by mentioning our charity and presentations to schools that you know. By sharing our experience, it may trigger warning signs to children who are dabbling in the dark web, may be at risk of online bullying or know someone who is.

....and then takes them Go Karting

Monday, 18 December 2023

Following on from our school presentation at Focus 1st Academy, we asked the kids if they would be interested in attending an activity day with us. After overwhelming responses of ‘yes we would’, we agreed on a day of Go Karting.

So, on the 18 December, 28 excited young people and their teachers, joined us at the Rye House Go Karting track. Although it was competitive with podium places and medals up for grabs, everyone joined in the fun, finishing the day with a great dinner.

Important to our mission is to encourage young people to take time away from their phones. So, before the event, we asked the students how they felt about leaving their phones in their lockers to allow them to focus on having fun with their school friends with no distractions. All were happy to oblige and what we witnessed was truly amazing. The day was full of laughter with everyone having a great time. We couldn’t be more proud of all the kids that attended and they are certainly a credit to their school.

This is testament to the aim behind our work and why we are dedicated to helping save lives.

TESTIMONIAL

Hey George and Areti, thank you so much for taking the children bowling yesterday. I just wanted to let you know, my 9 year old son asked me about the dangers of the Internet and I was able to explain in detail how to stay safe online when he's older. Christopher's charity is already creating so much awareness. Your story touched my heart. God bless you all, God bless Christopher.  With love: Jessica's mum

MORE TESTIMONIALS

Hi George,

Thank you ever so much for taking Andreas tonight. He had such a great time and really enjoys being around you and your lovely wife. He’s so excited to be doing more activities with you both. I think what you’re doing is invaluable.

Take care & God Bless, Hary & Andreas

My son spent an afternoon bowling and spending time with friends at an event put together by the Christoforis Charity Foundation. When he returned home he expressed how good it felt to have gone to this event and how amazing George, Areti and the rest of the organisers were with all the young people there. It really made him think of how important it was to spend time with others and to be able to open up and talk about their lives, fears and worries.

Thank you all for organising this event and for reminding our young people that they are not alone and that they can reach out for help. Thank you for what you're doing for all our young people, you are all amazing and no doubt saving lives.

Wishing you all the best and thank you again for yesterday, John had a fab time xx
