LAST ORDERS MIDNIGHT THURSDAY 21ST JUNE ........HAPPY SOLSTICE!   The Rosita Trust was launched in May 2011 to commemorate Polly Renton and her daughter Rosita Fenwick Wilson. The charity is focused on media development and ethical journalism in Kenya. In 2001 Polly arrived in Kenya as a young television director, making documentaries for Channel 4. She was frustrated by what she saw on Kenyan television - soap operas, re-runs ofold sitcoms, chat shows and low quality local news programmes. She felt that Kenyans deserved better and established MEDEVA (Media Development in Africa) www.medevatv.com A decade after she arrived in Kenya, MEDEVA continues to flourish. It makes several highly popular TV programmes for nationwide broadcast and it has trained over two hundred young people from East Africa in TV and Radio programme making. Many have won major awards. The Rosita Trust helps identify and offer young Africans an opportunity to have a voice,often in adversity, through filmmaking and radio. It also gives one-off grants to other worthwhile causes in Kenya. This is what Polly believed in, and would have continued to do. The Trust is administered under the trusteeship of Polly's family and friends.Its patrons are the film-maker Lord Puttnam, and the veteran broadcasters, David Dimbleby and Sir David Frost.

Ninety Plus Ministries (UK, 1141703) Browse events

90+is a Sports Ministry that exists to see people transformed through knowing Jesus Christ. We support the Local church across the Uk to use sport as a tool to share the Gospel. Through discipleship, events and outreach opportunities we are helping the church use what is an international language in sport for Gospel purposes. For some sport is an identity a culture and a lifestyle. However the church can use this as a tool to reach out to the sports community to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Sport can also be a great tool to 'do life' with one another and so 90+ helps to encourage the use of sport as a missional lifestyle. 90+ also runs a discipleship programme for christian athletes. The 2 month academy programme trains, equips and teaches these athletes about using their platform as pro's for Gods glory. Following the 2months, 90+ aims to send out these sports men into clubs and teams as chaplains.
