The John Buckman Foundation has been setup in the memory of my Father John Buckman, who devastatingly lost his 19 months battle to Glioblastoma on 25th May 2018. For our foundation we are looking to raise money and work alongside chosen local and national charities.
With the recent restrictions resulting from the COVID pandemic and costs associated with staging public events, we have not been able to run some of our main fundraising events like the Summer Fair and Fireworks. This leaves a huge hole in our usual fundraising. We therefore welcome any donations.

Based in Nottinghamshire. OUR AIMS: Exercise, Therapy, Fun through Horse-Riding for children with disabilities, whatever their physical, sensory or learning impairment. The HORSE makes the difference. WHY? Exercise is essential for healthy bodies and minds. Without it, well-being is damaged. Muscles deteriorate through lack of use. Thought processes become dull and disengaged. HOW? Our VOLUNTEERS aim to change inevitable outcomes – with fresh air, exercise stimulated by the horse, incentive to think ahead by being in charge for a change – all whilst having FUN.Many riders cannot be active any other way. Those with learning challenges may not see the need and lack the will to try. The HORSE stimulates: the RIDER responds. Rhythmic movement is calming for challenging conditions with consequential benefits for families and friends. We involve PARENTS, who relish respite from the stress of constant clinical appointments. They enjoy interaction with their child in a fun setting. Or if they prefer to sit and relax, we can offer that too. Opportunities for sharing experiences socially between parents is enormously beneficial for peace of mind. VOLUNTEERS are trained. They flourish in giving their support. Evidence of riders’ achievement is rewarding, improving volunteers’ own fitness and well-being. Young Volunteers learn and gain valuable life skills, benefitting future employment. Older Volunteers find new purpose in retirement. We bridge the generation gap in sharing expertise.

(UK, 1137819) Browse eventsTower Hamlets Foodbank works to combat hidden hunger within the local community. Tower Hamlets foodbank opened in December 2010 with the aim to provide emergency food to individuals and families facing crisis in Tower Hamlets. Since then we have fed over 6,000 people - 2,700 of whom have been children. Despite being home to Canary Wharf, Tower Hamlets has the highest level of child poverty in the UK – 25% of all households in the borough survive on less that £15,000 a year. Whether it’s due to a financial emergency, benefit change, mental illness or debt, many in Tower Hamlets are one unexpected bill away from having to visit a foodbank. All foodbank clients are referred through our network of care–professional agencies across the borough who are best placed to identify clients in need of emergency food. Our network of care-professionals includes GP’s, Social Workers, Health Visitors and Children’s Centers. Food is distributed at a foodbank centre where clients receive light refreshments, a listening ear, and emotional support/advice, whilst being signposted on to where they can get help to tackle the crisis they find themselves in. They also receive their much-needed donation of food, enough to last three days - which is the period assessed as the time it takes for the appropriate agencies to be in a position to assist. We are also working in partnership with the Child Poverty Action Group to provide welfare advice in our foodbank sessions to tackle the underlying cause of the crisis. So not only does your donation help to provide food but it also helps to tackle the underlying cause of food poverty. All food distributed is donated by the local community via supermarket collections, individuals, schools, businesses, community groups as well as churches, which is then ‘banked’ in a warehouse. Tower Hamlets Foodbank is a community project and so greatly relies on the generosity of the public – we would greatly appreciate your support so as to continue to provide this much needed service. Tower Hamlets Foodbank is coordinated by the charity First Love Foundation. For further information, please email us at [email protected].
