Our team started helping children early 2004 by empowering and strengthening communities though playing capoeira. This was initially achieved by visiting schools and working in partnership with other charities. Capoeira Academy UK was teaching four classes a week to children in 2008 and following on from this we opened our charity (Capoeira Academy UK Charity-XT12570) to achieve our dreams of assisting children and young people to have a more active and fun childhood through the benefit of capoeira. Since 2008 we have continued to provide children’s capoeira classes both in schools and out of school hours to encourage continuing practice of capoeira and health promotion. This has enabled more than 10 children to participate in our yearly event the “batizado” where their efforts are rewarded with grading belts. Capoeira Academy UK is chaired by Edgar Leite , more frequently known as Instrutor Bombril. Edgar has been teaching capoeira for over 10 years starting in his home town of Albufeira, Portugal under the supervision of his teacher Mestre Namorado. Often a few of Edgar’s experianced students assist in the children’s classes, all of whom are CRB certified.

Our highly skilled and dedicated Social Work staff work tirelessly to meet the needs of children for whom adoption or fostering is the only way to ensure they become part of a loving and caring family. Formed in 1922, St Andrew’s Children’s Society is the largest adoption agency working in Scotland. Our services are flexible and responsive to the widely differing needs of the children themselves and of the individuals, couples and families seeking to adopt. We welcome adopters from the broad spectrum of society, regardless of ethnic origin, religious persuasion or sexual orientation, in line with the provisions of the Adoption & Children (Scotland) Act 2007. There are far more children in need of adoption or fostering than there are suitable homes for them. St Andrew’s Children’s Society plays a key role in helping to maximise opportunities for adoption and fostering in Scotland, enabling many children to make a new start in life. The adopters we work with live throughout Central Scotland but the children we place come from throughout the UK. We work closely with adoption agencies nationwide, through the British Association of Adoption and Fostering (BAAF).

It’s time to think Mission statement: Tackle Child Poverty Promote Equality Stimulate Children Encourage Participation Poverty can have a profound impact on the child, their family, and the rest of society. It often sets in motion a deepening spiral of social exclusion, creating problems in education, employment, mental and physical health and social interaction.
