Friends of Wimbish School (UK, 1055520) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Friends of Wimbish School (FOWS) are parents, friends and family of children who attend Wimbish Primary, but also people within the community who are passionate about their local school and who feel that they can make a positive difference. Wimbish Primary School provides education from Reception to Year 6 for the children of the Village and surrounding areas , which includes nearby Carver Barracks which accounts for 75% of our pupils.Due to its small size (currently 54 pupils) and the transient nature of Service family life, the School faces many challenges not associated with the majority of small, rural Primary Schools, but the dedicated Head Teacher and Staff ensure that the experience of their children is incredibly positive and rewarding, borne out by their latest Ofsted report. FOWS strive to raise the funds for equipment and extra-curricular activities that further enhances the positive School experience of our pupils. Charity No: 1055520

YTD Raised: £0.00

Carolyn's Run for Cocktails in Care Homes! “I think what you are doing is very good. You know, it livens the place up a bit. It is nice to have the sound of laughter and people enjoying themselves” Care Home resident On 22nd June, Magic Me Volunteer Carolyn will be running 13.1 miles to raise money for Cocktails in Care Homes, she has been volunteering since 2012: "When I was little I used to visit my own Grandma in her care home, and would always leave feeling sad because of the many residents who didn't have family or friends to visit them. It can be such a lonely place for many people, and as soon as I learned of the Cocktails in Care Homes initiative I knew it was a perfect project for me to get involved in. Those that know me well will know how much I will struggle with every step of the way, so please support me to raise money for this fantastic charity so we can keep bringing some fun to many more care home residents." Cocktails in Care Homes brings fun and glamour to care home residents! Every week Magic Me volunteers visit an East London care home to host an evening cocktail party. Residents get dressed up and look forward to the special occasion. For many this is the only visit they get and residents enjoy begin in touch with the wider community. This year we have hosted 41 parties for over 152 older people and over 134 volunteers at five London care homes. To throw a cocktail party costs £100 which includes:    About Magic Me "Magic Me is the best thing going on, because it is actually changing people’s lives" Young participant, aged 9. Magic Me runs creative arts projects which bring together young people 9+ and older people, 55+, to build a stronger, safer community. Week by week young people and older adults meet together in schools, care homes, older peoples centres and after-school clubs, working on a shared activity: learning photography, writing poetry, creating a theatre piece or a mosaic to decorate a local wall.  Participants are encouraged and supported to work together, so that real relationships can develop. Activities are led by professional artists, and designed to cater for both age groups, fostering conversation and an exchange of ideas. Based in Tower Hamlets, East London, every year we work with over 500 local people from different generations, cultures and ethnicities. Magic Me challenges negative stereotypes of young people and elders. It also gives people of all ages a way to get involved in their community and stay connected, to learn new skills and pass on expertise. In 2011 we expanded our new project Cocktails in Care Homes, which has proven really popular since we launched it in Autumn 2010. Our team of young adult volunteers run monthly cocktail hours for residents in 6 local care homes, a chance for older people to dress up, chat with new people and stay in touch with the wider community beyond their four walls. "Magic Me has turned my life around, I want to get up in the morning and do things. Ive got something to get up for." Man, 80+, taking part in a weekly photography project with teenage students.  

James Ballantyne Memorial Fund (UK, 1167006) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Supporting and encouraging young engineers On Friday 3rd July 2015 James Ballantyne was tragically killed in a road traffic accident. James was an energetic, eccentric, idiosyncratic, generous and sociable 23 year old. He was loved by many and liked by all those he met. He had an infectious passion and enthusiasm for everything he did. One of those passions was for engineering and in particular electronic engineering. He graduated from Cardiff University in 2013 with a degree in Electronic Engineering and he went on to work in the profession which he found immensely interesting and satisfying. He was always keen to share his love of the subject with everyone.To that end the James Ballantyne Memorial Fund has been set up to provide information and advice and to advance education in the study and practice of engineering among young people.With your support we can ensure that the love James had for engineering will never die and will be shared and enjoyed by more young people than ever before.

Pekbeken Ali Foundation (UK, 1148259) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

The Pekbeken Ali Foundation was set up to help poor and disadvantaged children and families in bangladesh. We assist with access to clean drinking water, blankets, housing and education. We also have a policy of helping individuals sustain their families through access to decent education and by provision of means to earn a regular income. Bangladesh currently suffers from a high level of illiteracy with around half of the population being able to read and write. In remote or rural areas, access to basic primary school education is scarce and even when this is available; most children have to suffer inadequate shelters in which schooling takes place. PAF looks to create schools where there is a requirement and to replace buildings made of tin which fail to provide a place conducive to a great studying environment. We look to achieve this goal by raising money to build schools through projects such as 3 Peaks and Mount Kilimanjaro Challenges where our team members fund the trips personally and donate 100% of the money they have raised to the charity.   In 2012 PAF managed to raise over £2,500 when a team of seven climbers completed the 3 Peaks Challenge. This money has part funded the building of a school in the village of Nazirow gow in  Sylhet region, Bangladesh . The school is currently under construction with the foundation stone laid on 14th January 2013 during a ceremony attended by a local MP (name). The current tin structure is being replaced by a brick building and will house up to 120 school children with a total of 8 teachers providing morning and afternoon classroom shifts in a secure and safe environment. All classrooms will be kitted out with desks and chairs and the school will potentially hold a small library. As well as providing clean, hygienic and well-constructed classrooms, we aim to ensure clean drinking water and sanitation facilities are available at the school, in order to help improve the health of the children. The school is due to be completed and officially opened on the 29th March 2013 by the founder Mohammed Ali.
