The Studio (ADHD) Centre
(UK, 1151771) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00The Studio (ADHD) Centre is a small, unique charity which provides a specialist resource for children, adolescents and their families suffering with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Aspergers Syndrome and other complex behavioural needs. Often, ADHD is just seen as naughty behaviour or bad parenting. However, it is now recognised as a neurological developmental disorder affecting about 5% of the school-age population - as common as dyslexia in fact. It is acknowledged to be a persistent and chronic condition for which no medical cure is available, although it can be managed with medication. It tends to affect boys more than girls (a ratio of 5:1) and the condition can continue into adulthood. Untreated ADHD can result in: * Rebellious and anti-social behaviour * Little stability or success in social and peer relationships * Financial instability and often excessive debt * Exclusion from school and intermittent employment * Addictive personalities (drug and alchohol use) * Self harm * Involvement with the criminal justice system * Family breakdown However, if their energies are channelled and focussed correctly, young people with ADHD possess positive leadership, creative and entrepreneurial skills and the potential to become our next generation of pioneers in all areas of society - think Bill Gates, Steven Spielberg and Winston Churchill, to name but a few! The Studio has developed a unique style of therapy using visual concepts that significantly improve the understanding of key social and emotional principles, including motivation, anger management, consequences and self awareness. We are committed to providing early intervention to those at risk of exclusion, suspension or non-attendance at school resulting from behavioural problems. We work with the family as a whole to achieve the best results. Our highly successful Activity Programme continues to be a key part of the therapeutic style of our organisation. This programme helps to develop physical and emotional confidence together with self discipline, relationship and team work skills. Education outside the classroom can stimulate and inspire, foster independence and interest in the wider world. As a registered Duke of Edinburgh Award Unit, we encourage young people to look for success in leisure, sport, voluntary and community work. To this end we engage them in a variety of interests and activities including climbing, angling, motor mechanics, leadership and survival courses, team building, canoeing and many more. During these activities parents have an opportunity to meet other parents in similar circumstances and many new friendships are forged. The Studio has become increasingly recognised for its expertise and acknowledged as a pioneer in the field of ADHD. To our knowledge, we are the only centre of its kind in Surrey.

YTD Raised: £0.00The Men's 10k needs you! (and £1 from you and 19 of your friends) The 2013 Men's 10k is under threat! Our charity has no government funding this year and unless we manage to raise tens of thousands of pounds there will be no Men’s 10k in 2013. The Men’s 10k team is applying for grants and looking at every available sponsorship opportunity. But as we know our biggest and best resource is our wonderful men, supporters and volunteers! If you and every other person who’s ever been a part of our great event raised just £20 then we’ve worked out that the Men's 10k would live to run another year! As well as giving you and your family and friends a great day out, the Men's 10k has a more serious side and that’s to engage men in Scotland in healthy physical activity and to promote health and wellbeing all year round. We want to change the scary statistic that the life expectancy of a man in Scotland is the lowest in Europe and 3 years less than in England and Wales. Did you know that each year around 40 per cent of the men taking part have NEVER entered a running event before? Our aim is that by taking part in the Men's 10k, they get that kick start they need to start living a healthier life and in the 6 years that we’ve been hosting the Men’s 10k, we’ve had some fantastic, positive feedback.. "Me and my brother are fat. We don’t like being fat. After the 10k we aim to be less fat." "I have ran this race three times before as I suffer from mental illness and running & exercise makes me feel better in myself. Its great to see all the guys getting out there and enjoying their run." "At 49 after a regular check up my GP told me if I didn’t start exercising, I’d probably be on a shed load of tablets in a few years time!! I thought this is the last chance saloon." So guys, please help us! Please click here to go to our fundraising event and let all your friends know! We’ve got until 31 October to find the money to make the 2013 Men’s 10k happen. we’re relying on (and extremely grateful to) you!
