We support people to make friends, take part in activities that support their health, wellbeing and safety and to live as individuals, being in control of everything they do. Every penny of funds raised is spent directly on supporting people with learning disabilities who choose to receive support from us. For example, 100% of your contributions will support us to provide resources such as art materials, musical instruments, transport for much needed days out (supporting users and carers), social events in the community and much more. Many of the people we work with have very little money to spare, so any additional support we can offer through fundraising is gratefully received. In the coming months, we will be posting details on our website as well as telling you directly about how funds you help us to raise are being used and how your support is directly supporting some of the most marginalised people in our society.

Pro Bono Economics
(UK, 1130567) Browse events
YTD Raised: £927.50Pro Bono Economics matches volunteer professional economists with charities, providing free help to measure performance and understand charity impact and value. Our aims are: PBE was set up in 2009 by Martin Brookes, Director of the Paul Hamlyn Foundation, and Andy Haldane, an Executive Director at the Bank of England, when they identified an opportunity for economists to help charities. The Director, Sue Holloway, is a former government economist and has been Director of the charity since September 2010. A small core team of three staff manage projects and support the relationship between the charity and the volunteers. They are funded by grants from trusts and foundations, ad hoc donations from generous individuals and regular giving by individual economists. To date we have received applications from over 130 charities from all over the UK. We have had exploratory conversations with some 60 more, which in themselves have, we are told, been extremely helpful to the charities. Over 270 economists have registered with us and we have already used more than 130 of them on projects. About 35 projects have been completed or are in the final stages. These are for charities ranging from the very small (e.g. Fair Pensions and Foundation Training Company) to the very large (Barnardo’s). Projects include advice on collection of the data required to do economic analysis in the future, and social cost benefit analyses of particular programmes. All the analysis is peer reviewed by experts and published on the PBE website. At any point in time the central team is managing around 40 projects at various stages in the process. Our approach is to be as helpful as possible while maintaining high standards of rigour, transparency and consistency. Our independence and the quality of our volunteers makes the analysis we produce credible with charities and funders alike.
