About The Proton Foundation
The aim of the Proton is equipping, encouraging, resourcing and inspiring people to achieve their full potential as individuals, families, community groups in the UK and beyond. Proton Foundation was founded in 2006 by Ian and Judith Green. Their heart was to see numerous communities transformed, over the years Proton has been catalytic in seeing numerous projects impact their local communities.
In October 2016 a project called ‘The Flourish Project’ was launched under the umbrella of Proton Foundation. The project was founded by the current CEO. Since the project launched, its influence has grown nationally.
We are passionate about enabling communities to impact thousands and thousands of young people to grow and thrive in a healthy way. We look to establish partnerships with schools, dioceses, youth organisations, churches and like-minded charities, by resourcing them to transform their communities.
