Building Happier Futures is a long-term John Lewis Partnership initiative launched in 2022 to support care-experienced children..

This year, we embraced a little inter-house competition, encouraging our kids to transform their outdoor spaces into vibrant, colourful gardens.

 What a fantastic turnout for our Budwood Easter Bonnet Competition this year!

It was an incredible day spent catching up with our dedicated staff and inspiring young people. I couldn’t be prouder of the progress we’re making together at Budwood.

Flossy, one of our incredible young people at Budwood has decided to get her long locks cut to help charity!
