CASLE Says “Thanks”.

After 25 years of success CASLE is closing.  To mark this milestone, we are awarding extraordinary change-makers who partnered with CASLE.  These awards have been delivered personally, and are also listed below. In addition we have created an Honour Roll (see below), of some 400 additional individuals and groups who made a significant contribution to CASLE’s Healthy Schools work along the way. To each of you, we say “Thank You” on behalf of the many school children and staff who have benefited (See the Awards Button at right).
