Cavendish High School is a very special school for children and young people with complex learning difficulties including autism and physical disability. Our charity, The Friends Of Cavendish, was formed when the school first opened in 1978 and we are really fortunate to have people who raise money on our behalf. All the money is spent on extra things ranging from trips out to a hydrotherapy pool. Our motto is "Inclusion through Participation" and we are proud that fund raising is through our friends. We want to be part of the community and fund raising helps us to extend our friendship with others. Currently the school is raising money for our own cyber cafe that can be used by the pupils, the community and especially ex-pupils. We hope to have specialist IT equipment available for all to use giving access to computers and augmentative communication aids. Thank you so much for supporting us and we really look forward to opening up our cafe in the near future.

End violent conflict. It's our purpose -- our call to action. Conflict and differences are inevitable. Violence is not. We partner with people around the world to ignite shared solutions to destructive conflicts. We work at all levels of society to build sustainable peace through three main avenues: Who we are: We're a non-profit peace-building organization in 35 countries around the world. 83% of our team members are working in their home countries. They are constantly creating innovative ways to help their neighbors transform the way they deal with conflict, away from violence toward joint problem-solving. The Details: Instead of tearing down an existing world, we focus on constructing a new one. We do this through a type of peacebuilding called “conflict transformation.” Meaning: we look to change the everyday interaction between hostile groups of people, so they can work together to build up their community. Our response to conflict doesn’t have to be violence. In fact, though it’s not easy, conflict is an opportunity to make the situation better for everyone involved. In order to work with all sides of a conflict, we have to remain impartial. We do not take a political, religious, or “good guys vs. bad guys” stance on a situation. We work at every level of society to promote individual, social, and institutional change. We're committed to measuring the results of our work.

We're a Boys Brigade Company based in Kilsyth, Scotland raising money for the village of Katete in Malawi. For years we've worked with Katete: working with Mary's Meals, we built a kitchen at the local school so each child could get one meal a day in their place of education; following the massive increase in attendance at the school, we worked with Classrooms for Malawi to renovate some of the school's classroom and visited in June 2014 to help with the work. Now we're continuing fundraising to keep helping the school and the village. We hope to be able to pay for the renovation of the church which also serves as 2 classrooms during the week, so the people of Katete have a place both to worship and to learn, before hopefully returning in the summer of 2016 in order to give out the many goods and clothes that have been donated to us for the most vulnerable pupils at the school.
