Volunteers work in pairs to help offenders make the right choices about their lifestyle that prevent a return to prison.

Shannon Trust
(UK, 1117249) Browse events
YTD Raised: £715.16Every prisoner a reader. 'The essence of what we do is in its simplicity. Prisoners who can read teach those who can't.' Shannon Trust Trustee For most of us reading is a skill we take for granted. For thousands of people in prison, however, reading a letter from home, a job application or a newspaper is simply beyond them. 46% of prisoners have a literacy level at or below that expected at 11 years old. Prisoners teaching prisoners to read makes sense.The one-to-one peer mentored approach of the Shannon Trust Reading Plan appeals to prisoners who are reluctant to engage in classroom learning because: The Reading Plan runs in almost all prisons in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Prisoners and prison staff are supported by Shannon Trust volunteers who work together to make the Reading Plan available to non-reading prisoners. In 2014, 4,400 prisoners decided to learn to read with the Reading Plan. How your donation could help. Your donation will help to make our vision, 'every prisoner a reader', a reality. In 2015 we launched our new Reading Programme, Turning Pages. Written specifically for adults in custody, Turning Pages is made up of 5 manuals and 30 readers (emergent reading books). We provide these together with trained volunteers, Mentor training and publicity material free of charge to prisons. Thank you.

Nour - Domestic Violence
(UK, 1144213) Browse events
YTD Raised: £580.00Nour is charity which aims to tackle the silent, yet prevalent social issue of domestic violence (DV) in the Muslim community by using Islamic literature from both the Qur’an and the Prophetic teachings as a platform to refute and condemn DV. Our objectives as a charity are to open the lines of communication and facilitate the access between individuals and our team of Islamic, legal and professional advisors, so that they may receive counselling and advice which is sensitive to their faith. We also allocate clients with a caseworker to assist in their situation. We endeavour to eliminate the complacent attitude towards DV in Muslim communities by educating, creating awareness and campaigning against DV via seminars, community talks and workshops. Our final phase is to provide an aftercare package for the DV survivors and their children to include social and psychological support. Our philanthropic motivation and ambition for the outreach to victims of DV is rooted within the teachings of Islam, but Nour will be accessible for all and there will be no racial, religious or gender discrimination of DV victims. We hope that the culmination of the services that Nour provides will be a source of strength, support and solace for the survivors of DV.
