Lao Educational Opportunities Trust (UK, 1115944) Browse events

We aim to raise and administer funds to provide disadvantaged young people, (generally between the ages of 18 and 27) in Laos with educational opportunities. It is a pitifully poor country, limited industry, and for young adults coming from an agrarian family background, the opportunity for further education is generally non-existent. We are currently supporting 15 students (10 male and 5 female) at universities and colleges. We want to increase the number of students to 20 and, more importantly, establish an English Institute in Luang Prabang (the second main city in Laos). The establishment of the school is an extremely exciting project as it is a natural adjunct to our main activity and also because it has been proposed to us by the Children’s Cultural Centre, a semi-autonomous entity administered by the local authority in Luang Prabang. We believe that by working alongside such an entity, we will be able to benefit the local society by giving a wider age group the chance to learn English. Whilst there are other schools that teach English, these schools are for students who can afford the fees. Our aim is to provide lessons at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels on a charitable basis and to provide students who reach the required standard with a certificate that is recognised by the Lao authorities. We believe that a UK charity that spearheads the teaching of English in a country that has generally not benefitted from any support from the UK would be fantastic.

The Friends of Holy Cross Church Sarratt (UK, 1018991) Browse events

Following a very successful 800th anniversary celebration of the building in 1990, the idea of establishing The Friends of Holy Cross Church Sarratt was conceived. It was felt that the raising of funds for the upkeep of the building could and should be separated from, but still kept under the umbrella of, the Parochial Church Council. It was considered that the primary aim of the PCC was pastoral and to support the ministry of the living church rather than spending time on thinking of fundraising activities to maintain the bricks and mortar. A formal Charitable Trust (The Friends of Holy Cross Church, Sarratt - UK Registered Charity Number 1018991) was therefore eventually formed in 1992 to do just that. The responsibility for the upkeep and overseeing repairs etc remains with the PCC, what The Friends do is raise the monies to pay for it. As well as paying for routine repairs and maintenance of the church, the most significant example of how The Friends have helped was providing the funds to enable the complete re-roofing of the church in the year 2000, at a cost of approximately £90,000; internal redecoration in 2008 costing £57,000 and the rebuilding of the West Wall and Boundary Walls towards the end of 2009, costing approximately £50,000. We have regular events and projects. We support the Flower Festival on the last weekend in June each year, and hold an annual Sponsored Bicycle Ride in conjunction with the Historic Churches Trust. These events, as well as being for fundraising, are of course also community events bringing together Holy Cross and the people of Sarratt.

Dore Foundation (UK, 1096562) Browse events

The Dore Foundation aims to improve the lives of people who have difficulties with learning. It is a grant giving organisation with a particular focus on supporting early interventions for children with special educational needs (SEN). As such, it works collaboratively with schools and other partners to provide access to the Dore Programme, a personalised programme of daily physical exercises for people with learning difficulties and SEN such as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and ADHD. It is estimated that one in five of us struggle to learn. The pressures to belong and to achieve are consistently promoted, yet the gulf between those who have difficulties with learning and everyone else is still evident. Today’s educational system isn’t working for a significant number of children, many of whom lack the support or resources to do anything about it. We want to help bridge the gap wherever we can to provide real support for those in need and give children the opportunity to achieve and a belief in their own ability.
