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.

British Inspiration Trust (UK, 1137795) Browse events

BRIT’s Mission is to create a social investment legacy by building a BRIT Centre of Inspiration for charities to refer their young people facing their darkest times.  We aspire to support young people post-trauma by reigniting self-belief, self-confidence and self-worth on residential themed courses.  On completion of the course we will ensure that every young person is linked to educational facilities or charity programmes within their home community.  BRIT will achieve this by fusing together partner charities, professional counselling and psychotherapy support, the nation’s inspirational figures and young people who have traversed their darkest times, to educate, enthuse and empower them.  We do not actively ask the public to donate to BRIT as we are asking businesses to fund the building of the BRIT Centre of Inspiration. Should you wish to support us, these donations will go towards our minimal running costs and ensure we continue to operate. Phil Packer MBE launched the British Inspiration Trust on the 24th January 2011 and has kept to his principles: • Plan to build a Centre of Inspiration where charities can send young people facing their darkest times to regain their self-belief• Partner with charities and ask for advice – he now has over 50 Charity CEOs as Advisors who have justified the need for the BRIT Centre• Ask high profile inspirational figures to gift 24hrs to spend with young people at the BRIT Centre – Phil has 50 BRIT Mentors so far• Run BRIT with minimal overheads - everything to operate BRIT has been gifted.• Ensure BRIT encompasses all disabilities, medical conditions, injury, young carers and the wounded. On the 24th January 2012, to raise awareness of BRIT and to show his commitment to young people post-trauma, Phil started a 2012 mile walk throughout every county of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. On the 18th December 2012, with a spinal cord injury, Phil will have completed the equivalent of 310 marathon distances in 332 days.

Ourside Youth Association (UK, 1151415) Browse events

Ourside was set up by a group of Young People in 2005. It was felt there was nowhere for Young People to go in Evesham. They fought hard for 4 years to get a Youth Centre up and running with help from Worcestershire County Council Youth Workers. They did consultations, presentations, awareness raising activities and fundraising projects and put together two DVDs in that time. Reverend Barry Colins from St Peters Church, Broadway Road heard about the group from a presentation in the Evesham Town Hall and offered them a building that had not been in use for several years and was in a state of disrepair. Due to the state of the building the Young People had to raise enough money to make the building usable again. They raised over £120,000 to do the work that was needed. The work was completed and Ourside Youth Centre opened up in 2008. We’re open! Ourside Youth Centre was run for 5 years by Worcestershire County Council but unfortunately in 2011 decisions were made to cut the Youth Service budget so the future of Ourside Youth Centre was unknown for some time. The County Council decided to commission out the remainder of the budget to other organisations instead of funding projects directly. With help from Youth Workers the current users of the centre and the Young People who set up Ourside Youth Centre originally were contacted and informed on what was happening. Everyone agreed that something needed to be done so that Ourside Youth Centre remained open for many years to come. Through that a committee was formed called Ourside FAM (For All Members), the committee had Young People who use the centre, Young People who had used the centre and the Ourside Originals. The committee looked at a range of options to keep the centre open. The option that was agreed to be the best was to set up as an Organisation and bid for some of the Positive Activities commissioning money.
