Welcome to the Childhood Foundation Website

 

 

We are a small development charity that focus on educating children and young people through leisure activities.

 

In the UK, we run holiday clubs for children. 

 In Sierra Leone , we work to educate children and young people through play.

 


Education in Sierra Leone is criticised for being too much talk and chalk. Children learn by rote and adults view children who question them as ill-mannered.

 


Our  Children's Clubs aim to broaden the horizons of children and promote critical thinking skills.

 



Children's Club will be run by interested local social entrepreneurs and organisations who are passionate about childhood and about the development of Sierra Leone.

'My vision for Children's Clubs is that they will be as abundant as corner 'Fullah' Shops meeting the needs of children at a local level'
