We are raising funds for a new building for an amazing preschool whose care has been rated outstanding by Ofsted two consecutive inspections, but whose building is at the end of its serviceable life - Please help us rehouse this amazing service at the heart of our community!Since Sept 2016 we have raised £156,000. Our target is £300,000 We have served our village for nearly 50 years - generations of villagers have come here, but the building was a temporary war time canteen never intended for full-time use, and it is now too costly to maintain, not big enough for demand and not accessible enough for modern requirements. Most fundraising will be done through grant applications, but we are more likely to secure funding if we can prove how important we are to the wider community - so please make a donation, every little helps - the more people who show their support, the more likely the funding bodies are to back us!

Piggles Trust is committed to providing pre-schooleducation to children and their siblings, within the hospital environment. Creating a ‘normal’ environment within the most ‘abnormal’ of situations is the hardest challenge any children’s department within a hospital is faced with. Whilst addressing the clinical needs of the most unwell children, it is no less important to consider the overall emotional, developmental and mental wellbeing of the child and their family. The complete upheaval, change of environment away from ‘normal’ family life, coupled with the fear of uncertainty all play a huge role in this hugely distressing time for both the child and, just as importantly, their family. Piggles Trust aims to bridge some of these gaps by creating more of a ‘home from home’ experience, specifically through education. Charity No: 1171147
The Challenging Behaviour Foundation (CBF) is a UK wide charity which provides information and support to families and professionals caring for individuals with severe learning disabilities, who are described as having challenging behaviour.The CBF was founded twelve years ago by a parent carer Vivien Cooper: "When our son Daniel was diagnosed with Cri du Chat Syndrome, the only information given was a single sheet of paper. This wasn't much help when Daniel was pulling the curtains down, ripping his mattress open and eating the stuffing, or banging his head. With specialist help, children like Daniel can learn ways to communicate that mean they don't need to resort to challenging behaviour. Frustrated that this specialist understanding had not reached us sooner when we needed it, I set up the foundation in order to provide information and support to other families caring for individuals with severe learning disabilities"The CBF provides a range of resources on issues surrounding challenging behaviour and actively campaigns at national policy level. Resources are free to parent carers."Our aim is for children and adults with severe learning disabilities, who are described as having challenging behaviour, having the same life opportunities as everyone else, including home life, education, employment and leisure" www.challengingbehaviour.org.ukTel: 01634 838739

The main element will be the building of a storage tank with a capacity of 100 cubic metres. School washrooms for girls- Girls in rural Africa frequently miss school when they have their periods, as the schools' washing facilities are generally inadequate. We are helping to build four girls' washrooms in schools in Kipkelion District. School toilets- we are supporting the building of a new pit latrine block at a primary school in Kipkelion District. We are collaborating on all of these projects with our sister charity The Friends of Londiani, an Irish registered charity (number CHY 16505) which is very well established in the area.
