Our Projects
The Cherry Groce Foundation offers a comprehensive range of services, including educational and training programmes aimed at youth violence reduction, the development of resources to enhance police and institutional practices through Restorative Justice, and the adaptation of storytelling resources from Lee Lawrence's autobiography for educational purposes.
The Foundation also delivers various community Initiative projects as well as community transport service.
Education Programme
The Louder I Will Sing, is an educational programme established in 2022. The project's aim is teaching conflict resolution, restorative justice, and promoting diversity in the curriculum.
Our team work directly with schools to foster environments where young people can express themselves, set goals, and engage in meaningful dialogue.
Community Projects
The Cherry Groce Foundation was established as a tribute to Cherry Groce, who radiated positive energy and chose to live life to the fullest despite her circumstances.
It's that spirit we work to honour by supporting members of the BME community with a physical or mental impairment/disability - often facing challenging circumstances - live full lives.
Restorative Justice
In 2016 a High Court order was issued following the Restorative Justice outcome with the family of Cherry Groce. The Foundation embodies a legacy of resilience and justice. Central to its mission are the principles of Restorative Justice and violence reduction, with a significant focus on fostering positive community relations bridging the gap between institutions such as the MPS and our communties.
