Inside Out - Wormwood Scrubs Community Chaplaincy Helping prisoners to return to a positive role in society Inside Out works towards building relationships with prisoners to support their successful return to the community. It is an interfaith based organization that complements and works alongside the voluntary and statutory agencies involved in resettlement within and outside the prison. The charity has no external financial support; the vast majority of the work is carried out by volunteers. In June this year, three amateur cyclists (Patrick Foster, Mike Preston and Henning Goranson-Sandberg) will attempt to cycle up Mount Ventoux not once, but three times within 24 hours. This iconic mountain is the ultimate test for cyclists in the Tour de France. Our 3 cyclists have put in many miles of training for the last 6 months in order to raise the money the charity needs to contine its work. The aim is to raise as much as possible towards the £60,000 needed to run the charity each year. Many thanks for your donation

(UK, XR10888) Browse eventsAnnual Fund 2013 - 2014 Dancing in the Rain Just because Pate’s is an Outstanding School doesn’t mean we’re immune to revenue funding challenges. Government funding is down £110k next year and we have lost a further £155k from commercial partners and the Pate’s Foundation (which was so generous in recent years helping fund our new refectory). In total that reduces our income next year by about £265k. We will work hard to manage this ensuring that the core purpose of the school will not be affected. In our latest Ofsted Inspection (2013), we were categorised as “Outstanding” in all areas. The report comments ….. “The academy pays considerable attention to the wider personal development of students and the range of opportunities beyond the formal curriculum is exceptional.” We are determined that these opportunities do not lessen in any way through lack of resources. We know the storm is upon us; we can either sit and ride it out or we can seek your support and start Dancing in the Rain. With fantastic governor backing we have decided on the latter. We have always looked to our parents and alumni to help us provide the very best educational experience for our students. We are now in even greater need for our community to step up, dig deep, join those who are already supporting us and enable us to not only put up the umbrella but also to put on our dancing shoes. The Annual Fund 2013 – 2014, ‘Dancing in the Rain’, is vital to provide the extras that otherwise will be met with a sharp intake of breath and a shaking of the head. Please support us. Your children are worth every penny!

(UK, 1143255) Browse eventsTogether with the Children is dedicated to permanently ending the misery of street children. It is the sister organisation of the JUCONI Foundation (Juntos Con Los Ninos) which has transformed the lives of thousands of children and their families in Mexico and Ecuador. For many children living and working on the streets of Mexico and Ecuador, JUCONI is their last chance. JUCONI works with highly excluded children who drop out of or are missed by existing state and voluntary service provisions. Every time such children are failed by another organisation, they become more detached and less trusting that their lives can be improved. For the majority of children supported by JUCONI, integration into a safe family environment is the result of the intensive and personalised work carried out by highly trained educators over a period of time. However, for some children, the creation of a safe environment in their familial home is not possible and, in those cases, children are housed and nurtured in JUCONI House. JUCONI has developed a pionnering model to address the needs of street children and their families and shares this knowledge worldwide through its training programme.
