(UK, 1191863) Browse eventsFighting With Pride supports the health and wellbeing of LGBT Veterans, service personnel and their families, in particular those most impacted by the ban on LGBT personnel serving in the Armed Forces prior to January 2000. We are proud of the achievements of our serving LGBT personnel. They serve in every part of the Armed Forces and are supported at every level of command. In stark contrast, and despite the passing of over 20 years since the ‘gay ban’ was finally lifted, no attempt has been made to support the recovery of the thousands of LGBT service personnel dismissed or forced from service prior to 2000. We want to connect service charities and organisations to those LGBT veterans who have been left behind.

(UK, 1103859) Browse eventsFreedom to Learn is a UK based charity which works to provide the opportunity of education to children from some of the remotest regions of the Himalayas and South Asia. A major part of our work is in Nepal where we work with 13 state schools. All of them, and the communities they serve, were badly damaged by the 2015 earthquakes, 82% of homes were destroyed. While the world’s attention wanes young people in Nepal inspire us with their pragmatic, positive and energetic approach to making their country a better place. Supporting their dedication and recovery will inspire them in turn. FtL is now focusing on re-building livelihoods, homes and schools. In the face of such sorrow and devastation there is now new and genuine optimism. There is a wealth of opportunity for re-building local stable micro-economies, creating better quality school environments and earthquake proof, environmentally friendly, economically sound homes and schools for future generations.This would not be possible without the understanding, generosity and action of our fab supporters - THANK YOU!

(UK, 1168812) Browse eventsThe Soho Recovery Centre will be a safe space in the heart of London for 12-Step recovery meetings to take place. Modelled on similar centres around the world, it will be available to any 12 Step Fellowship group such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, Cocaine Anonymous, Crystal Meth Anonymous, AlAnon and Anorexics and Bulimics Anonymous etc. for their meetings to take place. It will be open 365 days a year and allow meetings to go on regardless of holidays. Meetings will be asked to contribute to the centre based on the number of their attendees rather than a flat rate for the room. This will help smaller fellowships to find a meeting space and new meetings to get started. It will also establish a permanent foothold for recovery in Central London. The person in need of a meeting will always be able to head to the centre knowing that there will be a meeting soon. The Soho Recovery Centre will be an easy place for newcomers to find, where they can meet other members and become familiar with the workings and locations of other meetings, as well as those held at the centre itself.

(UK, 518812) Browse eventsThe Sheffield Open Heart Club (SHOC) was started in 1984 by patients, relatives and staff at the Northern General Hospital. SHOC has a team of volunteers, all of whom have undergone cardiac surgery themselves, and who are therefore in a good position to speak about things from a patient and relative’s point of view both before and after surgery. SHOC provides specialised equipment and items for the comfort and benefit of cardiac patients on the Chesterman Wing at the Northern General Hospital through fundraising and the donations it receives. SHOC volunteers visit patients on the Chesterman Wing prior to heart surgery to share their experience and answer questions about their surgery and recovery helping to allay patient’s fears. Volunteers attend pre-surgery information sessions for patients at the hospital as well as visit the wards. They respond to patient/relatives’ questions about ‘what it was like for them’. SHOC volunteers receive regular support and guidance from professional staff working within the Chesterman Wing and also as a Partnership Organisation to the Hospital Trust Volunteer Service. SHOC is a registered charity and affiliated to the British Heart Foundation
