Formed in 1967 and based in rural North Herefordshire we seek to promote the development of young people in achieving their full physical, intellectual, social and spiritual potentials as individuals, responsible citizens and as members of their local, national and international communities by way of the Scout method promoted by the Scout association. 1st Weobley has a committed team of unpaid volunteer Leaders who willingly donate many hours of their valuable time each week to support our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts. We are very proud of our place in the local community and our association with many of the village organisations. We have a particular affinity with the local branch of the British Legion and the Burton Gardens Centre which supports sheltered housing for the older generations.  We are completely reliant on fundraising and donations both to provide the equipment and resources necessary for our young people to have fun and to maintain our aged wooden HQ which is almost as old as the group itself. At the present time we are engaged in re-equipping the group with camping equipment and refurbishing much of the inside of our building. We have a dedicated and committed fund raising team who work so hard on our behalf. The subscriptions that we receive from the families of our young people barely cover our costs so we are constantly looking for innovative ways to raise funds for the group. We rely on the generosity of people like you. Please make a donation to support our young people. It really makes a difference. Thank you.

Central YMCA (UK, 213121) Browse events

Central YMCA Central YMCA is the UK's leading health and fitness charity and the world's first YMCA. Changing lives for the better through a unique blend of education, training and campaigning, we're here to make others happier, healthier and more active. Donations will allow Central YMCA to continue supporting projects in our community from investing in disability sport to healthy living for deprived children and young people.   In 2014, we are raising funds for three main projects in our local community:   Young Health Champions The problem: The biggest risk takers when it comes to lifestyle choices are young people. At school-leaving age the numbers of young people eating healthily and taking part in sport and physical activity drops dramatically, while smoking, and drug and alcohol abuse rises, along with increased susceptibility to poor mental health.   A solution: The Young Health Champions project aims to tackle this by training people aged 14 to 25 to provide their peers with important information about health  and support them in making positive lifestyle changes – particularly around physical activity, drug and alcohol, mental health, smoking cessation, sexual and mental health. They also act as ‘young consultants’ to local health services, commissioning and sporting bodies, advising what services young people really want and how and where they want them.   How donations make a difference to this project £50 = 1 Young Health Champion trained to give them a better understanding of the causes and implications of health inequalities £250 = 12 Young Health Champions given delivery skills to help empower them to pass those messages on to their peers. £500 = 20 Young Health Champions qualified as community volunteers and acting as health ambassadors, increasing their employability, life chances and helping them to raise other young people’s aspirations.     YActive playscheme bursary The problem: Camden and Westminster have some of the highest levels of prosperity in the country but also some of the most serious cases of depravation. Many working families are on low incomes, and for those families, childcare during school holidays can be a real problem. Our community’s lack of safe play areas and structured activities means that children are then left more and more indoors, being looked after by older siblings or relatives - not being as active or stimulated as they need. This can lead to other long term problems such as obesity and low aspirations.   A solution:  We would like to offer a bursary scheme for such families to access our YActive playscheme, term time courses and holiday care and give them the opportunity to try new activities and develop healthy lifestyle habits.   How donations make a difference to this project £50 = 2 days of YActive play scheme for a child during the holidays £130 = A child participating in the holiday playscheme for a full week £680 = 6 weeks of playscheme for a child from a deprived background   Inclusive sports clubs The problem: Currently 93% of disabled people in the UK do no physical activity at all and almost half of disabled children suffer from obesity.  In addition to this, the barriers that young disabled people face in participating in activities prevents them from socialising, this in itself is damaging to their personal development and sense of wellbeing.   A solution: Hub Club aims to train up 100 young people (disabled and non-disabled) to design, set up and run sports clubs for disabled young people and most importantly get them participating in physical activity. Using specialist coaches, our sports clubs will be an opportunity for young people to building their confidence by trying new activities, developing their skills and socialising. In addition to this it will provide the young people with volunteering, education and work experience opportunities.   How donations make a difference to this project £25 = 11/2 hours of delivery of adapted activity sessions in the local area. £150 = An assistive device such as a ramp to enable those with profound disabilities to participate in activities. £500 = Training in specialised sports to volunteers who will buddy/mentor young people to allow them to access the clubs. £1,000 = Provision of 36 sessions of sporting activity delivered by a specialised coach provided in a supporting environment and tailored to the individual young person.

Jamie Procters Foundation (UK, 1139763) Browse events

Jamie Procters Foundation was established to give deserving young people a chance to benefit from life changing experiences. The charity was set up in memory of Jamie, an exceptional young man who died at a tragically young age. The Foundation will focus on 9-11 year olds, who haven’t had the advantages and opportunities that Jamie and many of his friends have had. By giving these kids from less privileged backgrounds, the chance to visit an adventure centre in Devon and to experience first hand, activities that many have not even heard about such as raft building, coaststeering,yachting, caving, abseiling and orienteering, we hope to show them that there is more to life than the 'Gang Culture', back home in Hackney. In turn this will help to inspire and motivate them, to achieve their potential in whatever paths they eventually choose. We feel this would have met with Jamie’s approval.
