interAKtive is an independent charity with around 170 member families, all of whom have a child or children on the autism spectrum, or a child with a similar communication difficulty. The group enables children to experience a range of activities that may be just too difficult for them to access on a day-to-day basis, due to behaviour, fear or other reasons. interAKtive organises many exclusive-use events, including swimming, ice skating and climbing, so that the children are alongside others with similar issues, and free of the pressures that come with noisy, crowded public sessions. Many activities are open to the whole family. the interAKtive playscheme, run during the school summer and Easter holidays, gives parents the opportunity to leave their children in the care of experienced and qualified staff, secure in the knowledge that their children are not only happy and safe, but enjoying a whole host of different projects. Parents and carers face both common and different problems, and sharing experiences can be invaluable. In addition to coffee mornings, parents can look forward to the annual conference, which provides speakers who both inform and entertain. interAKtive has been operating since 1994 and has strong links with professionals in the fields of medicine and therapies, and with local specialist schools.

In May 2015 Hannah Francis was diagnosed with an aggressive form of bone cancer. At the time Hannah was 17 years old and intent on pursuing her dream of riding at the top level of eventing. The diagnosis initially gave some hope with extensive use of chemotherapy, but, as Hannah says “now we know it is more likely to be a case of keeping on dreaming big, fighting hard and never, ever giving up – no matter what this evil disease continues to throw at us”. In the last year she has turned her overwhelming determination to, as she puts it, “#kickingcancersbutt” and inspiring people with her drive and determination. But she doesn’t do it alone. Shortly after her diagnosis Hannah was given a stuffed toy pony, to become known as Willberry the Wonder Pony. Now Hannah and Willberry devote much of their time and energy to raising money for charity and what started as a local effort to raise funds to buy Hannah a decent wig after losing her hair, is now a formal charity – Hannah’s Willberry Wonder Pony Charity – established and driven by Hannah to raise funds for bone cancer research and to grant equine related wishes to seriously ill people and their families. And she says that, long term, the charity will be her legacy, “Even when the day comes that I won’t be able to get up in the morning I want you to continue to keep fighting for me so together we can beat cancer.”

We consist of a small number of people who voluntarily give their time to rehoming those boxers who, through no fault of their own, have to find a new family. We also try to help with general advice on the Boxer breed and any problems which may arise. Our work consists of booking in and vetting homes available, taking details of dogs to be relocated, transporting Boxers from home to home, and running a back up service when required. Although we aim to place dogs directly from one home to another, it is sometimes necessary to invoke the use of kennels and foster homes on a temporary basis. Where there is difficulty in rehoming a dog due to age or medical condition, we can offer help with veterinary fees. This is only possible thanks to our Sponsor Scheme, where supporters can sponsor a dog of their choice. We also aim to promote responsible Boxer ownership by holding training sessions, mainly in basic obedience, together with fun classes for all, at regular intervals near St. Albans, Hertfordshire. Started primarily for the rehomed Boxer these sessions are now open to all Boxers and their owners, and usually provide a very entertaining afternoon. As you can imagine, all these activities run away with the finances - telephone bills, petrol, kenneling fees and vet bills. We are a registered charity and rely very heavily indeed upon the donations for rehomed Boxers, and fundraising events organised by the committee and supporters - such as exemption shows, raffles, tombola's, stalls, sponsored events etc. Membership subscriptions play a major role and we are always delighted to welcome new members - it is one way, as a boxer lover, that you can surely help the breed that you love. We produce newsletters giving you news or forthcoming events, informative articles on the breed, and stories about the boxers you have helped to rehome. If you feel you have the odd hour to spare and would like to become involved, please contact any committee member.

The Dreike Scholarship Fund has a simple aim - to help Africans who live near wildlife reserves to enjoy a decent education; allowing them to improve their quality of life and give them the opportunity to fulfill their ambitions and potential. We do this by providing funds for individual students to attend school who would otherwise not be able to enjoy the education they deserve. We currently support 36 children and one student nurse in Zambia, 16 children in Rwanda and 8 more children and one student nurse in Uganda. Our scholarships pay for any school fees, uniforms, school books and other materials. We help children who we feel are most deserving and too poor to otherwise afford to go to school. Our future aim is to continue to provide funds for these 60 children & young people so that they, and others, receive an education they would otherwise not have access to. Please help educate ONE AFRICAN CHILD...
