http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/charities/http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/charities/Edu-Care:MakingaDifference target="_blank" title="Link opens in a new window"> Edu-Care is a UK charity raising funds for primary and nursery education, health and human rights for young people in Cameroon, West Africa. We provide funds for building materials, education and medical equipment, clean water supply and sustainable electricity to schools and empower young people to learn about their rights and uphold them. We also co-ordinate volunteers sponsoring children in schools and assisting very poor youth with hospital bills. We believe that sustainable education especially for young people is the best way out of poverty, corruption, abuse of human rights and child exploitation which are common practices in Africa. The project in hand is the building of a nursery and primary school in a remote village in Cameroon to serve about 700 children. View the recent pictures in the photo gallery. We have raised about £31,000 which was our primary target. But this was a great under-estimation given the inflation. Therefore your generous donations will be very much appreciated to add a further £10,000 to complete the venture.

We offer support and guidance to women and children from all backgrounds and circumstances. For some this will just be someone to listen and for others this will be to offer them complete support to break away and start again. This may be through our helpline or even through one of our drop-in support groups. Our refuges are vital in allowing women access to peer support groups, education, one-to-one sessions with trained staff, and access to legal advice. Our children’s service is a vital part of Women’s Aid in Luton, our trained and skilled children’s support worker is able to work with the children that come into refuge to allow them to come to terms with their experiences.

Each year more than 300 cancer patients have to travel from the Basingstoke area to either Southampton or Guildford for radiotherapy treatment because there is currently no local facility for patients in the catchment area of the North Hampshire Hospital. This may involve daily return journeys five days a week for up to six weeks at a time when patients are recovering from surgery and often also from chemotherapy treatment. The Friends of Basingstoke & North Hampshire Radiotherapy Cancer Service began fundraising in 2009 and the charity RadCan was registered in 2011. Since 2009 the group have lobbied local healthcare representatives on the need for a local facility and it has now been confirmed that a dedicated cancer centre will be built in the north of Hampshire. The Centre will provide chemotherapy, radiotherapy, palliative care, core therapies and complementary therapies.
The Wheelchair Football Association (WFA) is the governing body for the sport of Powerchair Football in England. Powerchair Football is a unique sport that provides opportunities for people with a high level of impairment to access football. This means it is the only active team participation sport for Powerchair users. The sport is fast paced, dynamic and enjoyable to watch. Due to the unique nature of the Powerchair Football it allows all ages, disabilities and both genders to compete together. We do not just provide sporting opportunity, powerchair football also provides a great social opportunity for the players and their families as they experience the highs and lows of participating in the nation’s favourite sport. With 45 Powerchair Football clubs across England and a competition pathway from recreational activity, into a National League, up to representing England on the world stage, the sport continues to grow rapidly. The WFA are currently delivering a three year Inclusive Sport project, funded by Sport England. We have three regional development officers who are out running Powerchair Football festivals, delivering coaching sessions, recruiting new players and helping to set up new clubs. We could talk about Powerchair Football all day, but here is what some of the players say: Niamh O’Reilly, Sevenoaks PFC: I realised that through Powerchair football not only did I benefit from the joys of physically participating in sport again but during that time I had become far more sociable and had made many new relationships with fellow players. I had also blossomed into a far more sociable and happy character and found myself feeling more confident in both who I am and in my body, something I had never previously felt. Jon Bolding, England Captain: “I have been lucky to play the sport for a number of years. I have dreamt that one day I would be able to lead my Country and to pit my wits against the best of the Powerchair footballing world. The sport has given me so much and you just can’t beat the feeling of scoring goals!” Your donations will be used to change the lives of people who would not have been able to play the sport they love without your assistance. The WFA would like to thank you on behalf of all the players, coaches, fans and staff for your support for Powerchair Football. Thank you, you are amazing!

We aim to raise and administer funds to provide disadvantaged young people, (generally between the ages of 18 and 27) in Laos with educational opportunities. It is a pitifully poor country, limited industry, and for young adults coming from an agrarian family background, the opportunity for further education is generally non-existent. We are currently supporting 15 students (10 male and 5 female) at universities and colleges. We want to increase the number of students to 20 and, more importantly, establish an English Institute in Luang Prabang (the second main city in Laos). The establishment of the school is an extremely exciting project as it is a natural adjunct to our main activity and also because it has been proposed to us by the Children’s Cultural Centre, a semi-autonomous entity administered by the local authority in Luang Prabang. We believe that by working alongside such an entity, we will be able to benefit the local society by giving a wider age group the chance to learn English. Whilst there are other schools that teach English, these schools are for students who can afford the fees. Our aim is to provide lessons at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels on a charitable basis and to provide students who reach the required standard with a certificate that is recognised by the Lao authorities. We believe that a UK charity that spearheads the teaching of English in a country that has generally not benefitted from any support from the UK would be fantastic.
Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) is one of the rarest and most disabling genetic conditions known to medicine, causing bone to form in muscles and other connective tissues such as tendons and ligaments turning otherwise healthy people into human statues. A healthy mind locked inside a frozen body. The condition is so rare (1 in 2,000,000) that little commercial interest exists in finding a cure so we need your help. Your donations are the difference between research continuing and it stopping completely. Even the smallest donations make a big difference. FOP Action is a working name of FOP Friends of Oliver a charity registered in England and Wales #1147704.
