YTD Raised: £820.00
(UK, 1132448) Get Hooked on Fishing (GHOF) is a registered charity that provides positive experiences, life skills and opportunities. Using mentors and coaches we engage young people in a range of angling-based activities and initiatives that are proven to develop their personal and social skills and improve their relationship with the community. Established in 2000 to prevent young people from choosing a life of crime, we have a proven track record of delivering social inclusion, improvements in school attendance and educational achievement. Why angling? * Angling intervention programmes can produce a genuine transformation in behaviour and can improve outcomes across the breadth of disadvantaged young lives. Key characteristics include: • Drawing in disaffected young people through their fascination with the ‘otherness’ of fish and the excitement of catching. • A mixed range of activities that maintain interest, including sports coaching, environmental education, community restoration projects, peer mentoring. • Participating in activities within greenspaces has long been associated with improved wellbeing and is thought to reduce attention fatigue and facilitate mental restoration. Water has also been associated with improved self-esteem and mood. * Source:Angling and Young People In Their Own Words: Young People’s Angling Experiences The ‘Added Value’ of Angling Intervention Programmes.

1st Fetcham Scout HQ
(UK, 305773) Browse events
YTD Raised: £765.00CAN YOU HELP US BUILD OUR FUTURE ? Join our campaign to build a new Scout HQ in the heart of Fetcham. Sixty years ago in 1956 the people of Fetcham came together and raised funds to build a new Scout Hut. They carried out much of the work themselves. The old hut is now in urgent need of replacement given the age of the building, it's poor state of repair and our rapidly growing numbers. Today 1st Fetcham is a thriving Scout Group offering everyday adventure to over 200 boys and girls from 6 to 18 years. We need to raise more than £300,000 in order to build a new Scout HQ and to turn this dream into a reality.
