‘Liberty Staffordshire’ is a non-profit charity that provides young people with special needs opportunities to live and work within Staffordshire, West Midlands and Warwickshire. It was set up to combat the lack of government funding provided to help these youngsters both socially and with their physical and mental health.Queen’s Croft Special School is a learning community for youngsters who find learning and physical activities difficult. It focuses not only on education but on the individuals forward journey and transition to mainstream life. A generic Special School serving students from age 11 to 19, Queens Croft is different to any other because it continues its support way beyond education. Queens Croft and ‘Liberty Staffordshire’ We have set a task to increase fitness and muscle tone in as many young people that they can reach. They are working together to tackle the cliff drop transition between education and life beyond for people with special needs. Most educational establishments do not and pupils are left high and dry when education ceases. We provide vocational training, employment opportunities, football clubs, fitness and access to the arts for all. Due to lack of Government funding these children and young people do not get the physiotherapy that they require. The project is to set up ‘Boot Camp’ style exercise classes working with specially adapted gym equipment to tackle this issue. With funding we will run a yearly’ Iron Man’ challenge that they can compete in at their level. They will in turn be able to gain their own sponsorship to raise money for the continuing success of this project.To be able to do this we need to raise £18,000 to install specially adapted gym equipment, employ specialist trainers to run disability team games and running clubs. There is nowhere else that runs specially adapted exercise classes. We aim to integrate main stream young people when appropriate to the training sessions. There has been no other project or service where the children can socialize and integrate with others from the community. People with disabilities are unable to attend out of school gym clubs, mainstream dance classes or sports activities as others do which limits their social skills, stamina and physical development. Please help to give these children a sense of belonging and purpose. Charity No: 1054149 Find out more Facebook https://en-gb.facebook.com/libertystaffordshire/

Our group consists of Beavers (6-8yrs), Cubs (8-10yrs) and Scouts (10-14yrs) and is growing year on year. Our aim is to educate, guide and help develop young children within the global scouting programme which, includes activities such as outdoors, community, fitness, global, creative, beliefs and attitude. It is important for us to ensure there is a route for all children to join our membership and partake in the benefits the group can offer. This allows all children to participate in activities and attend trips away including camping etc. We feel the group allows children to develop and take responsibility for themselves and others to assist them in life as they develop into an adult. The group has members from various backgrounds and will help and support low income families to ensure their children are not discriminated against and can still enjoy all activities and education which the scout group offers. Please help us in fundraising to further enhance our group in areas of growth, equipment, activities and development.

This church is a priceless asset to the whole community, which it has served for over six hundred years, and we want to ensure that it lasts another six hundred (at least!) Started only in July 2011, the Friends have already chalked up two major successes. In December 2011 we laid on a water supply, thanks to a local farmer who kindly let us tap into his bore hole. Then in April 2012, we worked with the diocesan WiSpire team to get a broadband transmitter installed on the church tower, giving us an internet hot-spot within the church (with an eye to on-line broadcasts). Our current aim is to help raise funds towards the planned extension to the church. This will provide a kitchen and toilets - facilities which were somehow overlooked when the church was first built. Once we have these, the church will be able to host concerts, hold workshops and generally serve the local community. See our website for details of our SINGATHON on September 29-30
