A recent survey showed that:
- 88% of parents of befriended children noted a marked improvement in their child's behaviour
- 69% of children said they felt much more confident in facing problems
- 76% of children reported that they had learnt new things and taken on new challenges
In addition, our befriended children show a noticable improvement in school attendance and in their attitude to their studies. |
