And Albert Foundation (UK, 1072068) Browse events
YTD Raised: n/aFor nearly 20 years, And Albert Foundation has been working with villages along one of the old slave routes through Ghana, Burkina Faso and into the Sahara desert. The Foundation is built on the principles of respect, recognition, restoration and redemption. Our approach is a continuous process of problem solving to benefit the whole community in each of the villages where we work. Our many projects include providing clean water, planting indigenous trees, establishing alternative community education centres, building playgrounds and creating trade routes for the sale of traditional arts and crafts. Through our ‘Trading Roots’ brand, ethically traded goods from these villages are distributed for sale in the UK. Assisting in the development of consistent commercial markets helps village communities to believe again in their creative and cultural heritage.

The Bury Grammar Schools
(UK, 526622) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00The vision of our earliest benefactors, Henry Bury and Roger Kay, was to found a school that would educate young people to the highest possible standard; over 400 years later we continue to uphold their legacy of excellence in education. Our students leave us as mature, responsible, confident and well balanced young adults. They embrace life with a positive attitude and a quest for knowledge which has been instilled in them at BGS. They will make a difference in the world. We must continue to raise funds for capital projects if we are to provide our students with the facilities and resources they need in an ever-changing world. At the same time, we strive to increase bursary funding to provide assistance to bright children whose parents are unable to afford our fees. The children who receive bursaries are often amongst our highest achievers; they deserve the life-enhancing opportunity of a BGS education. We rely upon the help of our community. We ask you to give as you are able to ensure our future success and guarantee that others may benefit from the type of education you received. We thank you warmly for your kind consideration of our Schools.

Last season the age range of the players representing the senior teams team was between 11 and 66, including a number of fathers & sons playing in the same team.

The Healthy Living Club (UK, 1154130) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00The Healthy Living Club is a charity based in the London Borough of Lambeth that promotes the wellbeing of people with dementia and their carers. Dementia is one of the most common causes of disability among the old. It affects memory, thinking, orientation, comprehension, calculation, learning ability, language, behaviour, mobility and continence. Yet, the Healthy Living Club is a happy place and is a “lifeline” for our members. We gather in the communal areas of a local extra-care scheme to participate, together with the residents, in activities that are both healthy and fun. Over the last 12 months, our Wednesday Club alone has provided over 250 hours of activities (such as keep-fit, music-making, drama, art and singing) that have kept us healthy and joyful. Every year about 90 people benefit. An independent study, using tools of measurement developed by the New Economic Foundation, found that the 30K we spent in a year produced £500k of "social value". The charity started with a Wednesday gathering that at present accommodates an average of 43 members each week, the majority being people with dementia. Due to a long waiting list and to meet the needs of those who wouldn't be able to take part in a larger group, we started another Club on Mondays in the same premises that at the moment has 12 participants. We also run a regular Sunday “Crafternoon” and monthly carers groups. In addition, we try to promote a more positive image of people with dementia nationally, mainly through making good use of social media. Our Clubs include carers, older adults with long-term conditions other than dementia and volunteers as equal members. We all engage in activities that meet the needs of people with dementia, but that all our other members enjoy too. Our Clubs are not services. They are communities within which there is no "us" and "them". We replace loneliness with sense of belonging to a community within which the sense of ownership is shared.
