News stories from the JTYAF about award winners, fundraising activities, sponsorship, events and general good news about what the JTYAF has been doing.
A dyslexic pupil from Ferndown Middle School has been awarded a new laptop by the JTYAF.
All his work can be centrally stored on his own laptop to enable him to become an independent learner at school and use software which is specific to his needs.
This will help the bright young man in his lessons to record information, improve his IT skills and keep up with the lessons in each class.
The JTYAF supports young people from a wide range of youth organisations providing them with scholarships and bursaries to support their personal development and the pursuit of their ambitions.
The John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation (JTYAF) was set up in memory of John Thornton who was tragically killed in Afghanistan in 2008.
The JTYAF provides opportunities for young people to help them to develop as individuals and fulfil their ambitions in life as John was able to do.
