Across Borders (UK, 1170882) Browse events
YTD Raised: n/aWe believe that refugees and those with lived experience of forced migration are extraordinary contributors within UK communities. Yet, refugees and migrants are often prevented from contributing due to the hostile environment; by barriers to legal work and free and safe movement, by language barriers and by discrimination in healthcare and education.

The Free Fringe Ltd (UK, SC052628) Browse events
YTD Raised: n/aThe Free Fringe was started on the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 1996 at its original venue, The Footlights and Firkin by Peter Buckley Hill with his comedy show Peter Buckley Hill and Some Comedians. Disheartened by what he saw as unreasonable hire charges for venues and high ticket prices for the public, PBH (as he is more commonly known) tried a new model for putting on shows. Instead of paying for a venue and charging for tickets, there should be no hire charge and free entrance for everyone. If the audience like the show, they put a voluntary donation in a bucket at the end. Fortunately, a lot of people seem to like this model, which is why PBH’s Free Fringe is now the biggest producer at the Edinburgh Festival, with over 600 shows and 10,000 performances pre-Covid and the total rising again since 2020. That’s why our programme of free shows (“The Wee Blue Book”) has become essential reading for any fringe-goer. The venue makes money from increased drinks sales, the performer goes away several thousand pounds less broke, and visitors get to see far more fantastic quality shows than they could ever have imagined previously. It’s fair to say that the Free Fringe has totally transformed Edinburgh, and now attracts big comedy names, produces award winners and is the most dynamic thing to happen to the festival since the beginning of the Fringe.

The Gordon Howard MBE Memorial Trust (UK, 1178887) Browse events
YTD Raised: n/aThe Gordon Howard MBE Memorial Trust was set up in 2018 in memory of Major Gordon Howard, who dedicated his life to caring for the elderly in Zimbabwe. With the founder Sir Athol Evans, he set up and grew the Athol Evans Hospital Home (now Athol Evans Complex) from a small frail care ward to a unique facility in Harare offering three levels of care to those who are sick, elderly, frail and vulnerable, and those in need of respite and rehabilitation. He campaigned for the elderly in Zimbabwe and worked tirelessly to improve the lives of pensioners, ultimately being recognised for his work with an MBE from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 2008. The Trust was set up after Major Howard’s death to support the work that he started by supporting homes in Zimbabwe which in turn care for the elderly. Pensioners in Zimbabwe have suffered immensely over the years due to hyperinflation, and ongoing economic difficulties. Unfortunately there are little or no social services to help older people and many rely on care homes to survive. These homes rely on funding and donations to keep going.

(UK, 1028139) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00We are the PTA for Ilmington CofE Primary School. We are a small primary school with only 117 pupils. As the government continues to reduce the funding for schools, it is becoming increasingly important to raise additional funds for the school. We are a really proactive PTA and arrange lots of fundraising events throughout the year, including serving tea and cake at our local Village Show & school productions, family events such as Bingo, Breakfast with Santa, Easter events, the list goes on! All profits from our events and any raffles held go direct to the school. We currently have 2 big projects that the school have asked our support with, as their ever reducing budget just won’t stretch that far. Our first project is to make the playground a safer and more inclusive environment. The school would like to add a quiet corner with shelter and add a wall mural, repair the current shelter and decking area. Along with freshening up the current playground markings. This work is going to cost around £10,000. The second project is to purchase a new set of Phonics Reading Scheme. The school currently use the E-book version, but to purchase the physical books it cost £8,178. Having the actual books to use in school and send home means that they are full accessible to all pupils. We really appreciate any support that you can give us to help us provide this much needed provisions. Thank you for taking the time to read about our current projects.
