(UK, 1191016) Browse eventsOur vision is a world in which every bereaved child, and their family, receives the support they need. Our purpose is to provide bereavement support to promote resilience and provide emotional support to children, young people and their families and carers and assisting them to move positively through the grieving process. We believe that: - Grief is a normal, unavoidable process (not an illness or aberration) - Every child should have access to appropriate bereavement support - With appropriate support, a child can develop resilience and move positively through to adulthood and can develop coping strategies for positive mental health in adult life - With timely interventions, children and young people are less likely to engage in risky, antisocial and / or offending behaviours - Children should be supported to achieve their potential - Children should be heard and encouraged to express themselves - Children should be given the opportunity to explore feelings and emotions and understand that these change over time - Our bereavement services should be free at the point of access - We believe in the value of volunteering - We believe in treating everybody according to their needs - We believe in sound governance and management to the highest professional standards in all our spheres of activity

(UK, 1116101) Browse events"HELPING SNOW LEOPARDS SURVIVE IN THE WILD THROUGH COMMUNITY BASED CONSERVATION AND GOOD SCIENCE" With possibly less than 7,000 snow leopards remaining in the wild our goal is to help save this magnificent species survive for future generations. We are a charity run by unpaid volunteers so our aim is that over 95p in every £1 raised can go directly to funding conservation projects in snow leopard habitat in central Asia. The principal 'THREATS' to the snow leopard's survival in the wild are as follows:- The snow leopard can however be SAVED from extinction through the continued expansion of the 5 core project areas we support EDUCATION: We fund Eco-Education camps where rural children learn about their mountain environment, eco-system, snow leopards and their prey and are provided with “top up” schooling by teachers. These children will grow up to be their communities’ leaders and their attitudes and behaviour will be key to the snow leopard’s survival. LIVESTOCK INSURANCE: We help set up sustainable livestock insurance programmes. When a member of an insurance programme loses livestock to a carnivore attack the livestock is replaced, thus preventing any retribution killings of snow leopards by the herder taking place. ECONOMIC ENTERPRISE: Women herders typically get pennies rather than pounds when they sell raw wool fleece to traders. However when raw wool is spun in to yarn it fetches five times more in price. We purchase spinning wheels for the women herders, train them to spin wool and make handicrafts and then provide an international market place to sell their finished products. By doing this a herder family’s annual income can double or treble and the participating herder families agree that no snow leopards will be killed in the landscape of their rural community. LIVESTOCK VACCINATION: In some areas herders lose more livestock to disease rather than predator attacks. By paying for the vaccination of their livestock the herders agree not to kill any snow leopards even if they lose some livestock to predators. SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH: Until recently relatively little was known about the behaviour of snow leopards living in the wild. We support the first long term scientific research camp based in the Tost Valley in the South Gobi. By monitoring population densities of snow leopards and their prey we can judge how best to support their survival in the wild. 'Every donation made to snow leopard conservation is important and gratefully received. Thank you for joining us in our mission to save this magnificent species from extinction, and helping some of the poorest people living on the fringes of the world improve their livelihoods.'
