Home Straight (UK, EW01453) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Home Straight is a local non-profit organisation that was launched in 2011 to teach health and fitness to people who have found themselves homeless, marginalised, or suffer from substance misuse addictions by engaging them in a running community to build confidence, strength and self-esteem. We work with Turning Point and other hostels when they refer new members to us. The club is run by the members for the members, assisted by volunteers. We meet several times a week in the parks of central London for free training sessions focusing on running drills, running technique and endurance. The goal is primarily to get members fit for races and events, but fundamentally Home Straight offers much more than that...- It is a source of supportive camaraderie which gives members a new focus through the discipline of physical training. Members often have poor support structures, struggle to find work, and suffer from isolation. Boredom and loneliness are extremely risky for people recovering from mental illness and addiction. Home Straight gives participants a reason to get up in the morning It provides social support outside the training. The sense of achievement felt by those who join can be life-changing. In summary, Home Straight gives hope, structure and purpose to disadvantaged people, helping to improve confidence and self esteem, diet and health. It enables people to get together and bond by exercising in the open air. It changes people’s lives for the better, enabling them to get healthy and giving them the confidence to get into education, training and employment. Finally - we are funded by public donations and fundraisers, and we are working with a London university to undertake research on the effectiveness of the program.

3rd Farnham Scout Group (UK, 305739) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Welcome to 3rd Farnham Scout Groups fund raising web site with the goal of raising the funds necessary for a much needed refurbishment and repair of its 200 year old headquarters, Daniel Hall, located in the centre of Farnham. Fund raising through grants and other activities has been very successful. Sue Hepburn and Robert Humphrey, who are leading the grant applications, have secured over £180k towards the £220k target. The major grants have come from Farnham Buildings Preservation Trust, SITA Trust and Surrey County Council Community Improvement Fund. Smaller but still vital grants have been gained from Betty Riseley Trust, Round table, Lions and Farnham Institute. This refurbishment is vital to ensure that the group continues to offer adventurous activities and personal development opportunities for young people in central and east Farnham. Without this work the group will not be able to continue its success in doubling its membership in the last 10 years. The repair and refurbishment will provide both structural and amenity improvements including the following: When refurbished, the hall will provide a community facility that is currently missing from the central town area. Background and History 3rd Farnham Scout Group has been established for over 100 years. Our approach focuses on: Daniel Hall has been part of Farnham’s heritage for over 200 years and is listed as a building of local historic significance. It has been a home for Scouting for over 80 years, the Scout Shop for over 30 years and, more recently, a home for a Girl Guiding Company. The Scout Shop provides a service across Surrey and Hampshire with all profits going to support Scouting in Farnham. The building started life supporting the brewing industry as a hop and grain store and latterly became a furniture store. In 1929 it became the new home for the 3rd Farnham Scout Group. The hall was named after Arthur Daniel who was Group Scout Leader at the time and who played a key role in raising the funds to buy the building.
