The Sophie Lancaster Foundation
Description
The Sophie Lancaster Foundation (SLF) are on a mission to stamp out prejudice, hatred, and intolerance.
Sophie Lancaster, a young woman murdered for being different, inspired her mum, Sylvia, to establish the foundation. SLF is dedicated to shaping a future of tolerance and acceptance, partnering with secondary schools, universities, and the police to educate young people and those around them. With social media and online gaming, hate amongst primary school children is on the rise and SLF are determined to step in.
With our backing, SLF will launch an innovative support package for primary schools across the country to turn the tide on the rise of hate. Income generated from this will give the CEO the freedom to help drive the government to deliver long-lasting, nationwide change.
