The Jack and Ada Beattie Foundation (UK, 1142892) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

The Jack and Ada Beattie Foundation aims to support both needful individuals and charitable organisations through our grant provision. Our funding priorities are Dignity; Freedom and Sanctuary. The Foundation accepts applications from charitable organisations under these headings and funding will be directed to credible projects with measured objectives and deliverable tangible outcomes. We don't aim to eradicate global poverty, or tackle climate change by next Wednesday. We'll be fighting much smaller, but equally important battles. Backing achievable ambitions. Assisting the vulnerable and marginalised in the Midlands and London facing social injustice and inequality. We'd like our support to be as emotional as it is financial, hence our mission statement: Knowing that someone is fighting your corner Is half the battle won. Our Foundation will fight the corner of those we see as less able to defend themselves and support the flight of ambition for whom it is prevented. We'll do what Jack and Ada would have done!

Service User Network (Swindon) (UK, 1116140) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Service User Network Swindon,(SUNS) was founded in 1998. SUNS is a local charity run by mental health service users, with the aim of providing opportunities for service users to have a voice about the care they receive, by empowering them and providing opportunities for people to speak out. SUNS aims to support, train and encourage mental health service users to speak out about their experiences of mental health services. SUNS achieves its aims by attending and contributing to local NHS trust meetings. Service Users' feedback is gathered by providing a safe and friendly space in which service users can meet and discuss their experiences together and raise any concerns or examples of good practice. Where there are concerns, SUNS is able to contact care providers to ensure that appropriate care is given to service users. Part of this involves offering clubs and training open to all service users, in order to help build confidence, which will in turn help service users to contribute to meetings they attend. SUNS also works with its partner organistaion, Swindon Listening Line, which was set up in 2009. Swindon Listening Line is a telephone helpline which helps anyone in the Swindon area who feels worried, stressed or lonely, by offering a friendly ear, signposting people to organisations that can help them, and working alongside the local NHS crisis team. Service user feedback is also gathered in this way, and any calls which require further action are followed up on. Callers range from those wanting a quick chat to people who are in the midst of a suicide attempt; a number of lives have been saved by Swindon Listening Line, and it is felt that if people discuss their problems early, they are less likely to develop full-blown mental health problems.

Slough YMCA. (UK, 1002442) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

The YMCA in Slough is part of a world-wide Christian movement whose central aim is to promote the active involvement of young people in society, regardless of their gender, race, ability, faith or sexual orientation, and the development of healthy, sustainable communities. The YMCA has been around for more than 165 years and today we are perhaps recognised most for our work with homeless young people. Each night, YMCAs up and down the country provide rooms for around 7,000 young people who don’t have anywhere else to sleep. But this is only part of the story. What is probably less known is that the YMCA supports families, through early years’ education, breakfast and after school clubs and that by offering learning and skills, crime prevention, health and fitness, youth outreach and family mediation we also help to prevent youth homelessness occurring. But even that is not the full picture. The YMCA is also the largest voluntary provider of community based sports, fitness and physical activity programmes which form part of an all round approach to healthy living and personal and social development which is unique to the YMCA. Here at the YMCA in Slough we provide supported accommodation for homeless young people between the ages of 18 and 30 with the aim of helping them through their toughest times which will hopefully lead them to independent living. Through our community hub project, The Hangout, we try to foster a greater sense of community cohesion by bringing members of the local community together in one venue regardless of their race, colour, sex or background. In all of this we are helping young people, often from vulnerable and excluded backgrounds to belong, contribute and thrive within their communities.

Sang-ngak-cho-dzong (UK, 1019886) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Sang ngak cho dzong is the charity that supports the Aro Buddhist tradition in the UK. The Aro Buddhist tradition wishes to establish a permanent centre in Britain to make this form of Buddhism more accessible to people. We intend to raise £500,000 to establish a centre capable of hosting events. People endeavour to improve the world in different ways: through improvements in diet, physical and mental health, housing, and education. Our approach encourages joyful interpersonal relationships. Happy marital relationships ensure that children grow up in an atmosphere free of mutual psychological damage. Although we are a Buddhist charity, our teachings are open to anyone. At heart, the logic of our tradition is simple: world peace begins in the family. If children have positive role models in terms of their parents’ relationship, they are more likely to grow up as kind balanced individuals. This provides a self-perpetuating positive influence upon the world. The centre will bear the Tibetan name ‘Drala Jong’, which means ‘Sparkling Meadow of Primal Iridescence’. Of this name Ngak’chang Rinpoche and Khandro Dechen write: ‘Drala Jong innately exists in human beings. ‘Drala’ is the appreciative faculty which exponentially enlivens people the more they engage with the world. Appreciation is the key to enjoyment and to the delighting in the enjoyment of others. When we learn to appreciate phenomena our sense fields ‘Jong’ begin to sparkle and a sense of generosity is born which connects us with others. Although Vajrayana Buddhism is by no means unknown in the West -the sense in which enjoyment and compassion are mutually interdependent remains unexpressed. We would like Drala Jong to be a place where human beings could discover the pleasure of existence - the pleasure that animates the sense fields and revitalises the Arts - and the art of living.’
