Make a Difference Challenge
Make a Difference Challenge is a school-based social-action programme for UK primary pupils aged 5–11, delivered through classroom resources and regional kick-start activity. Schools enrol participating classes rather than individual entrants. The main challenge is identifying a real community issue, planning a practical response and working together to turn pupils' ideas into sustained, explainable action.
