    WHITE GOLD CORNWALL FOUNDATION

    White Gold Cornwall operates throughout Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We work with children and young people providing one to one mentoring to help them navigate life's challenges. We support those who are vulnerable and at risk with a multitude of issues e.g. lack of confidence and self-esteem, challenging behaviour and those failing to engage in education. Please see our website.
