The Dawn Sailing Barge Trust Limited (UK, 1058939) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

The Dawn Trust Charity was set up with the aid of the Lottery Heritage fund and many generous donations to rebuild the historic Thames “stackie” Sailing Barge Dawn to a sea going condition, maintain and exhibit her for the benefit of the nation and make her available for educational sailing trips and instruction in seamanship for the purpose of instruction of young persons in the principles of discipline, loyalty and good citizenship. SB Dawn is registered as a Dunkirk Little Ship and was damaged in Dover Harbour while taking part in Operation Dynamo. Dawn is also on the National Historic Ships Register. The hard work of rebuilding her to an operational condition is now completed and following a successful first season based at West Mersea in Essex, funding is now required for the ongoing programme of essential maintenance, accommodation improvements, heating, facilities upgrades, restoration and improvement of the original 100 year old refitted equipment. Hopefully with the help of our volunteers and donators, much of this work will be ready for next years sailing season. The aim for next year is to be fully funded and ready for a programme of events such as all the famous Thames Barge Matches where young persons can train in teams for a race crew in a unique type of vessel. Other events planned are involved with Mersea Cadet Week, Mersea and other Regattas around the East Coast, various sailing trips visiting the creeks and old barge quays such as in Bradwell where the Dawn Trust is planning to rebuild the barge quay, again with donation and Lottery funding. We even have plans as a one off to use Essex Wildlife Trust's Abbotts Hall Farm jetty for loading horse feed and hay stacked on deck to deliver for the local supplier to the Household Cavalry in London, a job the Dawn was originally built for in 1897. Let’s just hope we don’t also have to bring back the manure!

St Pancras Welfare Trust (UK, 261261) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Caring In The Heart of Camden Imagine having no-one to help you in times of need or sickness. Who would you turn to? Who can offer a helping hand? The only answer for many people living in Camden, young or old, is the St Pancras Welfare Trust. The object of the Trust is to help residents of the former Metropolitan Borough of St Pancras when faced with need or sickness and have nowhere else to turn. A separate trust, the Camelot Trust, supports holidays and school trips for disadvantaged young children. The area of benefit of both trusts lies within the heart of the London Borough of Camden and includes some of the most densely populated parts of the borough, many with high indicators of poverty and need. The most common request is to help people being re-housed - perhaps after years of living rough, living in a hostel or after leaving an institution. They have no resources or possessions and their new homes are usually cold and bare. We help by making small grants in cash or vouchers to buy furniture, bedding and clothes. We also receive requests to help young mums and their children, the frail and elderly and those in need of respite. During the year ending 31st March 2013 we made 164 grants totalling £23,577.  An analysis of grants shows that they directly affected a total of 838 individuals.  Beneficiaries included 9 pensioners, 23 persons suffering mental health problems, 26 persons with disabilities, 16 families being re-housed and 11 families seeking asylum. Your donation or legacy will make an enormous difference. Thank you

Presbyterian To be Presbyterian means to be linked with other churches so that we are kept accountable. Church The Bible describes the church in all sorts of ways, but the simplest way of describing a church is a group of people who are in a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Though the media often refer to the church as an organisation, and when giving directions someone may point out a 'church' as a landmark, the essence of a church is people. Church members are committed to help each other grow as Christians and communicate to those who don’t know God.

Africa BEECause (UK, 1133688) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Africa BEECause was formed in 2009 because we believe that beekeeping has the potential to make a very positive difference to peoples lives. Our mission is to encourage beekeeping in West Africa as a way of improving livelihoods, particularly for the rural poor. We are currently operating in The Gambia as BEECause Gambia and hope that soon we will also be working in Sierra Leone. Beekeeping has the potential to make a very real difference to peoples lives - support and training from BEECause projects will help individuals and communities to improve their economic well-being. Beekeeping is a low tech, relatively low cost activity which is possible in most rural areas and offers the opportunity of additional income. Bee products (honey, beeswax, propolis and royal jelly) are valuable and easily marketable and beekeeping leads to substantial increases in crop yields through improved pollination. Beekeeping also benefits the environment because more pollination means more seeds and more plants, esecially important in environmental regeneration, eg reforestation. We are working - to significantly increase the number of rural people practising beekeeping - to introduce modern techniques and good practice through trials and training - to increase the range of products, yields and product quality of honey and wax - to reduce costs to the producer and prices to the consumer, while maintaining returns - to introduce beekeeping and related education into schools and community groups - to ensure that technical innovation becomes good practice, through training and ongoing support.

Siri Guru Singh Sabha (UK, 1063786) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Siri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara Crawley, West Sussex       The Siri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara in Crawley has been serving the Sikh community for over 20 years in its present location in Spencers Road. Following the immigration movement of the 60’s and 70’s the UK saw an influx of hardworking Sikh men looking for employment. Due to its proximity to Gatwick Airport, the new town of Crawley became home to a large number of Sikh men. After working in Crawley and saving enough money these men called their families over to join them and began a long process of establishing themselves within British life. As a part of the Sikh community in India these families were very involved in practicing the Sikh faith. It was with these principles and desires to continue to practice the Sikh faith that led them to hire the Montefiore Hall in Three Bridges on a weekly basis for the sangat. They then established the first dedicated Sikh Gurdwara in Crawley in 1981 on the current site in Spencers road. As the Sikh community has grown the Gurdwara needs to keep pace with the change and needs of the community. Plans have been designed and approved to refresh the current site and build a new Gurdwara for the community. We call upon not only the Sikh community in Crawley but all people from around the world to help fundraise so we can fulfil the vision of the new Siri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara in Crawley.

Neve's Charities (UK, 1134053) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Neve was diagnosed with A.L.L. Leukaemia back in January 2008 at the age of 2 and after just over two long years of intense treatment including chemotherapy she has now been classed as in remission by her specialists. She will be monitored for the rest of her life to ensure this horrible illness does not return and although she is well at the minute she will always be classed as having cancer. Over the course of her treatment we met some very inspirational people who were not only there for us throughout but also tried their hardest to keep life as normal as possible. It is with these people in mind that we set up Neve’s Charities as they all belong to several small charities that most people have not heard of and as such do not fund. Our Charity aims to, not only help fund these people, but also to try and get these charities out in the public domain.
