Children Walking Tall was removed from the Register of Charities held by the Charities Commission in November 2012. It is not clear whether it was wound up voluntarily or not, nor is there any indication as to what happened to any remaining funds.

Looks like it morphed into a new charity..........

Lets hope it is genuine as it seems to be receiving support from a UK designer flip-flop brand........

Sounds dodgy though.

Perhaps Rob can enlighten us?

Yes Trustees Closed CWT and as far as I am aware moved all monies/assets to the new charity, Gandys flip flops were already supporting Children Walking Tall while I was there, so they continued with the new charity. I think Gandy's will be starting their own home soon. Best of luck to them.
