The Dan Eley Foundation
The Briars Group has chosen The Dan Eley Foundation to be the permanent charity that we support.
The aim of The Dan Eley Foundation is to contribute to the personal and professional development of underprivileged children and young people living in poverty or disadvantaged circumstances, with a focus on employment and life skills training and mentoring as a means to increase employment potential and the possibility of achieving a more fulfilling and productive life.
In order to achieve the mission of the charity The Dan Eley Foundation has two partner charities that it works with, a local charity in the city of Cali, Colombia called Foundation Education for All as well as a Godalming based charity called Skillway.
Founder of the charity, Dan Eley, carries out many fundraising events and is regularly involved in working with the partner charities.
