Celebrating Our Successes 

Between April 1, 2023, and March 31, 2024, our After after-school service made a real difference to local families by providing 2,311 free after-school dinners and delivering 8,088.5 hours of childcare to our community.

During 2023, we ran five holiday playschemes, delivering an incredible 13,408 hours of childcare, with 1,564 hours subsidized for low-income families through our partnership with Southwark Council’s HAF program.

Feedback from the children was heartwarming--94% said they made new friends, and the top highlight for many (39%) was “Trying New Things.”

In January 2024, we proudly re-launched our Breakfast Club with support from The Cyril and Eve Jumbo Charitable Trust. Between January 1 and July 31, we provided 339 nutritious breakfasts, ensuring children in our community started their school day well-fed and ready to learn.

CASP was never just about filling a gap in affordable childcare. From the start, we’ve been driven by a bold vision: to support the education, development, and wellbeing of Southwark residents.

Looking ahead, we know there’s still work to do. Over the next one to two years, securing funding to ensure sustainability and strengthen our financial reserves is our top priority. Once we’re financially secure, we’ll focus on expanding and adapting our services to address growing challenges, such as children’s mental health struggles and childhood obesity, which our staff see increasing in the community.

We’re excited about what lies ahead and are grateful for the continued support of our partners, funders, and community. Together, we can carry on supporting Southwark’s families.
