We are an active Parent/Teacher Association known as Friends of Mildmay Junior School (FOMJS) Charity No. 1128324. Every parent at the School is automatically a member of FOMJS and is welcome to join us to discuss and arrange fun and engaging activities to build the parent-school community and raise crucial funds to support our children during their time at Mildmay Junior School. Recent spending of the funds we've raised include the building of new outdoor playground equipment, new reading books, new outdoor storage sheds and a brand new sound system. We are always looking for new ideas and individuals who can bring a variety of skills and enthusiasm to our meetings. If you are interested in getting involved in any way at all please get in touch.

This ensures that the right athletes are helped at the right time and in the right way. It is a proven and established process that makes a genuine difference. At the 2012 Olympics, SportsAid alumni won 20 of the 29 Gold medals achieved by Team GB athletes, including 5 of the 7 'Yorkshire' Gold medals.

(UK, 1146990) Browse eventsThe Yorkshire Wolds Railway Restoration Project was formed in October 2008, exactly 50 years after closure of the Malton to Driffield line. We are working towards restoring at least part of the railway as a heritage attraction, working with all interested parties to enhance tourism in the area. This will be the only Heritage Railway in the East Riding of Yorkshire. We know the real benefits that similar projects (both small and large) bring to areas in other parts of the country and hope our region will be able to see these benefits too. With planning permission in place and having already secured a first round of funding, we are now starting work on-site and need your help to continue fund raising. With your help we can realise our aims and give East Yorkshire a much needed tourist attraction.
