Archie Lloyd tragically died whilst travelling with friends after his A levels in the Summer of 2015. He was a highly motivated young man who made the most of his talents and was inspirational to younger boys at his school. His sunny demeanour and passion for all things sporty and his determination to be the best he could be. His legacy should reflect his personality and help other young people to make the most of their talents and to inspire others whose life opportunities may not be what we would all want. The charity will raise funds to support a series of programmes/awards that will provide an opportunity for young people with ability and drive who are both good citizens and role models to undergo coaching/training, to then use the skills learnt to motivate and inspire other young people. This may involve travel to enhance the experience of the selected candidates. Funding will also be provided to support mentors to help the candidates selected to become ambassadors for the Archie Lloyd Foundation. Areas of particular interest to Archie were all sports, outward bounds, politics, music, finance and academia. These areas will be of particular focus, (although not exclusive) for the Charitable Foundation’s Trustees in the selection of suitable recipients of any award. The Charitable Foundation will support direct programmes as funding allows, whilst also working with established charities that can support and further the charitable objectives.
South London Cares is a community network based in Southwark and Lambeth. We recruit young professionals to offer a little extra time, practical support and human companionship to their older neighbours. Our mission is to build relationships between people who may not normally interact. We aim to tackle isolation, bridge social divides and bring our communities closer together. Our Love Your Neighbour programme matches volunteers who have a little spare time, to older neighbours who would enjoy a little companionship. Meanwhile, our Social Clubs - such as film nights, baking classes, cooking sessions, concert trips, brunch club and games evenings - provide a chance for people to share skills, new experiences and cultural exchange. How you can helpA donation of any amount will make a real difference. As we look to reach more older neighbours and bring communities closer together, your support would be greatly appreciated. To give you an idea of how you could help: - £20 helps fund a Social Club – such as a movies afternoon or games evening – from start to finish - £40 could help pay for a Cooking Session and meals for 10 isolated people. - £150 could provide transportation for 14 neighbours otherwise unable to attend our Social Clubs.
