Amber was one of three organisations on Channel 4's The Secret Millionaire on 23rd September, to receive a donation from Kevin Green, one of the biggest private sector landlords in the country and a multi millionaire. Kevin was inspired by the work of Amber and gave £20,000!  "My interaction as a volunteer gave me an overwhelming sense of comradeship and it was like one huge family atmosphere, where we all helped each other.

Kevin has agreed to run the 2010 London Marathon for Amber and plans to visit us often and help in as many ways as he can.

Pilot project with Dorset Probation
Amber Practical Training is piloting an innovative project with Dorset Probation. Through assessment and practical application offenders who are completing community sentences as part of the "un-paid work" programme can achieve an accredited reference. This reference takes the form of two certificates that show their ability to adhere to working practices and work as part of a team.
