The Marlow Bottom Pre-School Playgroup is a popular and successful Pre-School, catering for the needs of children between 2 and 5 years of age. We provide a happy, warm and friendly environment where children can thrive and learn under the supervision of trained, caring and competent staff. The Pre-school is a charitable, non-profit making organisation and fees alone do not provide all the funds we need in order to offer all the vital equipment and resources required to provide a wide variety of activities for the children. Each year we have a fundraising target that goes towards the running costs, the purchase of new equipment, days out for the children and improvements to the Pre-school. It also enables us to provide a free healthy eating initiative for all the Children which consists of fresh fruit and vegetable snacks twice a day. Additional funds can help us to provide valuable resources to ensure we can offer our staff essential or necessary training which isn't always funded by the local council. It also allows us to fund extra staff hours for when we may need to provide important one-to-one time for any of our children who may need it for whatever reason. YOUR SUPPORT IN OUR FUNDRAISING INITIATIVES IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU!
EDC is a local charity which purchases specialised equipment to help local disabled children. All the money comes from fund-raising and donations and, apart from very small amounts used for essential costs, it is all used to provide help to the children. The Charity is run entirely by unpaid volunteers. EDC gives help to local disabled children who live or attend school in the West Surrey area, or are under the care of the Royal Surrey County Hospital Children’s Unit in Guildford. EDC provides equipment to disabled children to make their lives as full as possible. The equipment enables children to live more comfortably, to play in more creative ways alongside their peers and siblings, to learn more easily or to enjoy more mobility. The equipment provided by EDC is always approved by a professional in the child’s medical caring team to ensure that the item purchased is the most appropriate for the child’s needs. Because the equipment is usually so specialised, and is either tailor-made or adapted exclusively for the child concerned, it is always much more expensive than standard ‘off-the-shelf’ products. For example, tricycles are frequently recommended and give children independence, exercise and the ability to play on equal terms with other children. They cost on average about £800 each. Normally, because of budget limitations or other restrictions, such equipment is either not available from the Health, Education or Social Services or would be so delayed that the necessary benefit to the growing child would be lost. Because each child’s need is different, each applicant receives individual attention. Apart from trikes, other examples of equipment provided in the recent past include walking aids, car seats, other specialised seating systems and buoyancy aids to encourage the children to swim as independently as possible.
During 2010 Treats Children’s Charity celebrated its 25th Anniversary year, and to mark the occasion we launched ‘25 Treats for 25 years’. The charity’s aim is to raise money to benefit the Children of Derbyshire and the surrounding region. Over the years we have helped to buy a variety of items, from helping finance a new building for St. Benedict’s School Enhanced Resource Base, mini buses, medical equipment, specially developed bikes, wheelchairs to dream holidays. We are always open to requests for help and will look at anything that can benefit the lives of these special children. We have donated funds to many needy causes, to many to mention. Thanks to all of you, Treats were able to make numerous donations last year to a variety of Children & Families who just need that extra bit of help. It is with the generous support we receive from people like you that Treats Children’s Charity is able to continue to give to all the good causes who approach us for support. I hope that this gives you a quick insight as to what we are about and hopefully will help you, help us, make a difference to the lives of these special CHILDREN.

The Giving Dreams Foundation is a registered charity dedicated to helping children who are suffering from a life threatening or terminal illness by provinding them with their dreams and wishes. To these children each new day is a gift in itself, but we believe in creating special moments for them and their families to cherish. We also offer professional counselling for their parents and siblings, helping open the lines of communication by being there to listen, understand, offering advice and support which provides some comfort during these difficult times.
The John Smith Trust was formed in 1996 to provide a permanent memorial to one of Britains best-loved politicians, the Rt Hon John Smith MP, who died suddenly in May 1994. Less than two years into the leadership of the Labour Party when he died, John Smith was held in high affection by many within and outside the Labour Party, not least because of the obvious sincerity with which he promoted the ideals of social justice and good governance. The aim of the Trust is to honour him by promoting the ideals that he held dear. Via the John Smith Fellowship Programme, the Trust unites young leaders across the globe who wish to promote those values. The Fellowship Programme is aimed at the next generation of leaders in a number of countries from the former Soviet Union and the Middle East - young leaders of proven ability and real attainments, regardless of their political background. The Programme is designed to introduce young leaders to the institutions and practices of democracy as they have evolved over time in the UK. It seeks to show how a mature democracy supports and develops good governance, the rule of law and the vindication of human and legal rights. It also shows how our form of democracy fosters and supports voluntary and other non-governmental organisations that seek to secure the relief of poverty, to empower disadvantaged groups and to give a voice to those who currently lack political influence. We do not attempt to indoctrinate the Fellows: we seek only to help them to choose the models that will work in their own societies. The Trust is a registered charity, not a party-political organisation; we have active support from all the major parties in the UK, and from many people and groups who are not active in politics.

UPKEEP OF NEW CRICKET NETS Now that we have completed construction of the new nets facility, we have to turn our minds to the eventual upkeep. Repair/replacement of the carpets and nets and re-levelling of the sub-surface is going to be very expensive over time, and no-one gives grants for maintenance! We have to find this money within the Club. Rather than wait till the need arises, we intend to gradually build up a fund to finance maintenance. We will try not to have to increase Membership fees to do this. So we will be extremely grateful for donations, either one-off or on a regular (direct debit ) basis. Just click on "Make a donation" on the right of this page to proceed. Thank you! Graham Jones Chairman

Welcome! For over 700 years Peterhouse has made a remarkable contribution to the society of which it is a part. It has done so through the generosity and support of those who have themselves been educated here, or who have found something in the life, work and educational purposes of Peterhouse that commands their enthusiasm and kindles the will to help. This is a pattern that goes back to the first great act of benefaction by the Founder, Hugo de Balsham, in 1284. Yet this small College, rooted in continuity, is at the same time a centre of innovation, across a spectrum of subjects from the most evidently practical to the most apparently esoteric. The computer takes its inspiration from Charles Babbage. Lord Kelvin brought electric light to the College second only to the Houses of Parliament, to mark Peterhouse’s 600th anniversary in 1884. Sir Frank Whittle and Christopher Cockerill gave the world the jet engine and the hovercraft. All were Petreans. Four Petrean scientific Nobel Laureates – Sir John Kendrew, Sir Aaron Klug, Archer Martin, and Max Perutz – gave a twentienth century lead in Molecular Biology. The Development Campaign supports Peterhouse as a special and historic place (buildings, facilities), as a community of people (student support, music, cultural and sporting opportunities) and as a home of education and intellectual life (Fellowships, Research Fellowships, prizes, research grants). Some £15 million has been generated since the Development Campaign was launched in 2004 with an initial target of £18 million. Campaign achievements to date include: the expansion of the Ward Library; the renovation of the William Stone Building; the creation of M Staircase (the first stage of the extension of Gisborne Court); the restoration of the Hall and the commitment of funding to restore the Combination Room; two College Fellowships have been endowed in perpetuity and significant new funds have been established to help undergraduates and graduate students suffering financial hardship. The top-up fees introduced since October 2006 for students themselves lead them to graduate with increasing levels of debt, yet the College derives little benefit from the new arrangements – the University absorbs by far the greatest part of the increased fees centrally to make up for cuts in central govenrment funding. So the new arrangements make things markedly worse for students, but no better for the College whose duty it is to support and educate them and their successors. So even £18 million will not be enough to meet the Colleges needs going forward: the development effort will be a continuing reality embraced by the College. And, while legacies are tremendously good news for the College's long-term future, there is also a pressing need for cash for priority projects such as the new building in Gisborne Court and the refurbishment of the Chapel organ. A gift of any size to the Development Campaign will help to enrich the experience of Peterhouse students today and secure the future of the College for future generations.
