We would like to invite you to support us in giving children and young people a voice on conflict. Enabling the custodians of the future to have a strong and powerful voice on issues that matter to them.

After years of successful creative arts competitions to mark the centenary of the First World War, we have broadened our focus to include conflict throughout the ages, up to and including war and conflict in all forms today.  At Never Such Innocence (NSI) we aim to ensure young people have opportunities to reflect on all forms of conflict throughout history and consider the value of commemoration. We believe that children and young people are the custodians of the future and as such, should have a platform to express their views on important issues.

We encourage children and young people to learn about our global shared history and heritage, and to tackle challenging topics related to conflict.

Donations of any size are welcomed by NSI - these will help our education initiatives reach as many children and young people as possible. To donate online quickly and securely please click DONATE in the right hand bar.

To support, sponsor or get involved with NSI please contact the team on enquiries@neversuchinnocence.com.

Where the money goes
Our costs are low - office space is kindly provided pro bono by Robert Walters PLC and our team is small. Your donation will go directly towards helping empower young people and allow them to reflect on important and challenging issues.

SPONSOR THE ROADSHOW IN FULL OR IN PART

The Never Such Innocence Roadshow will travel across the United Kingdom and beyond, to give children and young people a platform to showcase their work for an audience of their peers, and role models and leaders in their local community.  These events represent a unique opportunity to engage with the local community.

Local Dignitaries and politicians, senior representatives of the Armed Forces, as well as local Arts organisations, Museums, and Educational bodies are invited to attend and hear what the children and young people have to say.  

Benefits would include branding opportunities and invitations to our Roadshow.  Sponsorship opportunities are available for the entire series of roadshow events, or we also welcome sponsorship of individual events.  You could sponsor one local event as part of the roadshow, or the full roadshow programme.
