“We cannot wait to accelerate the movement of kindness and finish this labour of love and passion,” said Norcott.

She noted that Early Childhood Development remains one of The Robin Hood Foundation’s key focus areas.

“The first seven years of a child’s life forms the foundation that shapes their future health, happiness, growth, development and learning achievement at school, in the family, the community and in life in general. We want to make sure these precious children get the best possible chance for success,” said a passionate Norcott.

Over the past five years, The Robin Hood Foundation have successfully completed community projects.
