YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, 1079504) Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), or motor neurone disease (MND), is a muscle wasting condition that affects individuals and those who care for them across the world. ALS/MND progresses rapidly; average life expectancy is estimated to be 2-5 years. Currently, there is no known cause or cure. It is estimated that over 400,000 people are living with ALS/MND worldwide! To help people with the disease, groups of people have come together to form associations. The International Alliance of ALS/MND Associations was founded in 1992 to provide an international community for individual ALS/MND associations from around the world. Our vision is to engage with our members, prospective members and other organisations to share resources globally, advance awareness and support people with ALS/MND worldwide.
Darlindas Charity For Renal Research
(UK, SCO09765) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, SCO09765) Darlinda‘s Charity for Renal Research was the vision of one very special woman... Rita Madhok - who was known professionally as Darlinda - was the astrologer/psychic known to millions of newspaper readers for her weekly column in the Sunday Mail, Scotland‘s biggest-selling newspaper. Through the column, her broadcasting and personal appearances, Darlinda became a household name. When she was hit by a series of health problems - and in particular renal failure - Rita decided to give something back to the hospital and the carers who looked after her through months of ill-health which included renal dialysis and a kidney transplant. That hospital was Glasgow‘s Western Infirmary. The carers and medics were in the hospital‘s prestigious renal unit. For Rita, giving something back meant the launch of a new charity back in 1987 and since then the fundraising has never ceased. Sadly Rita died in 1995 but through her husband Dr Rajan Madhok DL and a handful of friends and supporters the work of the charity continues today. Since 1987 more than £950,000 (total at June, 2012) has been donated to the renal unit - an incredible total for a charity which relies on a small group of committee members supported by some very loyal and generous friends and associates.

Medical Assistance Sierra Leone
(UK, 1105330) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00Medical Assistance Sierra Leone was established in 2003 with the aim of supporting access to health care and urgent medical treatment for communities and individuals in Sierra Leone. Sierra Leone is the poorest country in the world (UNDP 2004), with high infant mortality and globally the worst maternal mortality rates. Sierra Leone's health infrastructure clearly requires support at all levels. However there are specific strategic areas where an input of resources can be expected to begin to save lives, improve health and well-being and better enable individuals to meet the vast development challenges facing their families and communities. MASL focuses on three areas of work longterm: Reducing maternal mortality. About 2% of women die in childbirth, largely due to lack of services to manage emergency obstetric care, harmful traditional practices, inadequately trained staff, a weak referral system and high hospital-patient costs. Reducing child mortality. A study by the government and UNICEF revealed that 1 out of 4 children die before their fifth birthday. Children are dying from easily treatable illnesses like malaria, which accounts for up to 65% of such deaths, diarrohea, measles and complications associated with malnutrition. Low cost, well-targeted interventions can save lives. Facilitating access to treatment for those with rare and specialist medical conditions, who face no prospect of getting treatment in Sierra Leone. Currently this includes support to spinal surgery patients, developing the first epilepsy service in Sierra Leone with UK consultants and plastic surgery support to burns patients. MASL works with others to raise awareness of the key health and development issues facing communities in Sierra Leone - and to generate interest and support in meeting the health needs of the country. We have virtually no UK overheads and employ one Coordinator in Sierra Leone, who liaises with and supports local partners and carries out a monitoring and evaluation function.
