FRIENDS OF LERATONG (UK, XR70168) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Belfast priest Kieran Creagh has been working in some of the poorest parts of south Africa for the past 15 years. In this time he has been working very closely with the poor and the sick in the townships around Pretoria. It was during his time in these townships that Kieran became more and more aware of the need for a facility in the township where people could go for proper care and attention during their illness, most of which were terminal. He also recognized the need for a place that could bring care and attention out to the community, where it was desperately needed. Also a place that could provide respite for the families and carers of the sick. Having worked in hospices back at home in Ireland, Kieran knew that this was what was desperately needed within the township. 6 years ago Kieran set about fulfilling his dream of building a hospice, and today that dream is a reality. A fully functioning 20 bed hospice in the township of Atteridgeville, Pretoria, named LERATONG (Where there is love). This has been achieved by raising funds back home, in Ireland. Also by staffing it locally with retired nurses and doctors working voluntarily. The ‘Friends of Leratong’ is a registered charity trust set up to raise funds on an ongoing basis for this much needed facility. We run various events through the year. Thank you for your support and for ongoing support. Yours sincerely, Paul Creagh Chairperson Friends of Leratong Trust.

Green Pastures (UK, 297937) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

The Shepherd’s Purse is our bursary fund and used solely to support residents who are funded by the local authority. The Home is run on a ‘not for profit’ basis with a strong ethos of caring for any elderly person in need residential nursing care. We strongly believe that the elderly deserve the best care we can provide and that they should be treated with dignity and respect at the end of their lives. A fee is set each year by the Board which will allow us to break even financially whilst providing good quality, attentive care in a homely setting. Local Authority funding is now unrealistically low and falls well below this ‘break even’ fee. Without the support of the bursary many residents would not be able to live at Green Pastures. We don’t want to turn anyone away because of funding. The Shepherd’s Purse Fund helps us to keep our doors open to everyone. This year we need to raise £30,000 and we anticipate the need increasing now year by year. All the money we receive via Virgin Money Giving will go into the Shepherd’s Purse fund and be used to support needy residents.

Planning Democracy (UK, SC041051) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Planning Democracy is campaigning for equality and fairness in the planning system in Scotland. We do this because planning affects our environment massively and many people find it incredibly difficult to get their voice heard when they are trying to protect Scotland from unwanted and detrimental development. So Planning Democracy challenges Government policy, law and a culture that often prioritises the needs of developers and big business over communities and the environment. We exist because people are often not listened to when important decisions get made about what is built in their local area. To give people a stronger voice in the planning system we are campaigning for Equal Rights of Appeal. This is a change in the law to put communities on a level playing field and allow them to appeal planning decisions, which currently only developers can do. This would fix a blatant injustice in the planning system which gives developers more power than the communities they affect. You can find out more about the campaign at www.planningdemocracy.org.uk.

Annunciation Marble Arch (UK, 1146634) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Welcome to the fundraising page of the Annunciation, Marble ArchOver the next 5 to 10 years, we will need to undergo a number of essential renovations so that the church can remain open and active.    Our first stage of works and most urgent concern, is that our heating has stopped working. Not only have our church users endured several freezing winters, but the cold and damp is causing damage to the interior of our grade II listed church.  Despite the staggering cost of installing a new boiler and heating system - around £125,0000 - we can no longer put off this essential building work. If you would like to sponsor a particular fundraising event (e.g. the young Snowdon hikers) please click on the link for ‘Sponsors’.  If you would just like to make donation to the Annunciation then please click on ‘Donate Now’.  All donation are much appreciated and gratefully received.Please donate generously so we can keep our church open, warm and ready to serve our local community. Who are we? We are a Church of England place of worship tucked away behind the hustle and bustle of Oxford Street.  Visitors step in to encounter a dramatic ‘Edwardian Gothic’ interior with the feel of a major medieval church.  The church was designed by Walter Tapper, has a Grade II Listed Building status, and was consecrated in 1914, at the start of WW1. On Sundays, our church is bursting with worshippers, and we run a successful Sunday School with over 100 children.  During the week, we are an oasis of prayer and quiet refuge for local workers, residents, passer-bys and tourists.  With strong connections to a local school and charities, including one that supports the deaf and deaf/blind, we play an important role in the local community.  Charity No: 1146634 Find out more Website Please click here to visit our website
