Diabetes Ireland is the national charity dedicated to providing support, education and motivation to all people affected by diabetes. We also raises public awareness of diabetes and its symptoms. Through our subsidiary charity, the Diabetes Ireland Research Alliance,we fund Irish based research into finding a cure for diabetes. In the absence of a register of people who have diabetes no-one can be entirely sure how many people In Ireland live with diabetes; the Institute of Public Health’s report Making Diabetes Count (2007) estimated that there were about 143,000 people with diabetes in Ireland (based on in 2005 figures) and predicted that this number would increase by 37%, to 194,000 people, by 2015. The Institute of Public Health’s subsequent report, Making Chronic Conditions Count (2010), revised upwards the forecasted number of people with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes, who are over 20 years of age to 194,000 in 2015 and 233,000 in 2020. Most recently, the International Diabetes Federation’s Diabetes: The Policy Puzzle, Is Europe Making Progress? (2012) estimates that there are 191,380 people with diabetes in Ireland (with a prevalence of 6.1% in the population) and that by 2030 there will be 278,850 people with the condition (with a prevalence of 7.5% in the population).

Meals and More (UK, 1179092) Browse events

Meals & More was set up to put an end to holiday hunger and provide holiday provision for thousands of the UK's poorest and most vulnerable children. When the school holidays arrive, it should signal weeks of fun for children, but the sad reality is that thousands of families across the UK will struggle to put food on the table. We believe that no child should go hungry, even when there is no structured support outside of the school term for the millions of children who receive free school meals. That’s why we started Meals & More, to put an end to holiday hunger and make sure that children don’t suffer six weeks of isolation, without a decent meal. We provide support for holiday clubs across the UK where children can enjoy a healthy, hot meal, as well as participating in activities that help avoid the stigma of poverty and the isolation that often follows.

Level Trust (UK, 1153936) Browse events

Level Trust supports children living in poverty in Luton. In Luton 14,000 children are living in poverty according to the governments latest figures. Poverty causes children to be without basic items such as comfortable school shoes, warm winter coats and even breakfast. In turn, this 'going without' can cause children to do less well at school because they do not have everything they need to do well. Level Trust seeks to remove the barrier's that poverty brings to a child's education by providing children with everything they need to thrive. Level Trust work through schools to identify the needs of children and to administer resources. Whether that is a new pair of shoes, a warm winter coat or a chance to go to a club they have always wanted to try, Level Trust do all they can to make sure that whatever a child's background, they have all they need to fufil their potential in life.

St Martins Housing Trust (UK, 802013) Browse events

Addressing the needs of the homeless in Norwich and Norfolk St Martins Housing Trust is a registered charity. Our objects are to "provide food shelter and accommodation in the county of Norfolk for poor people having no other residence or the place to sleep"  Our Mission St Martins Housing Trust strives to address the needs of homeless people in Norwich.  We offer emergency direct access accommodation, residential care, support and development to enable everyone to achieve their full potential and a greater level of independence.   How it all began…. St Martins Housing Trust started life as the Norwich Night Shelter Project.  The original Night Shelter at St James Church on Barrack Street opened in 1972 in response to the growing problem of homelessness in Norwich.  In spite of the very basic amenities, the Night Shelter was in ever increasing demand, and within a few years new premises were needed to cope with the swelling number of Night Shelter users.  In 1976, the Shelter relocated to St Martin at Oak, a redundant church on Oak Street.  From this point on the Trust developed a wide range of complementary services that responded to the needs and expectations of homeless people.  In April 2002 the Night Shelter was replaced by a new, purpose-built Direct Access and Resettlement Hostel (Bishopbridge House) at Gas Hill, off Riverside Road, Norwich.   THE TRUSTS SERVICES   Bishopbridge House  - A 30 bed Direct Access and Resettlement Hostel.  10 rooms provide direct access accommodation from the street.  20 rooms are used for move-on and resettlement.  The aim is to provide routes out of homelessness.   Highwater House  - A 22 bed registered care home for people with mental health problems and with drug/or alcohol dependency (dual diagnosis).   Carrow Hill Home  - A 22 bed registered care home providing long term care for people with mental health problems and sometimes drug or alcohol dependency.   Group homes  - A number of shared houses, which act as a stepping-stone towards independent accommodation.   Contact, Assessment & Prevention Service  (CAPS) - provides ongoing support and assistance to address the difficulties faced by people who are either sleeping rough or in insecure accommodation and at risk of becoming homeless. This work includes a one night a week street-based shift that makes direct contact with rough sleepers in the city.   Temporary Accommodation Project (TAP)  - started as a pilot project in 2001, and now manages temporary accommodation on behalf of Norwich City Council for single homeless people whose homelessness applications are being investigated.  The accommodation is in shared houses and is a more homely alternative to bed and breakfast.  It also gives the Trust the opportunity to work with the individual on an appropriate support package for both the immediate and longer term.   Under-1-Roof - The Trust’s training, education and employment preparation centre opened in February 2010, providing a welcoming environment for our service users where they can take part in training tailored to their specific needs by established local training providers.   Facilities  - in-house catering, domestic and maintenance services.   Administrative Support  - financial and administrative functions at the Trusts Head Office.   THE BIGGER PICTURE The Trust works as a part of the broader movement in Norwich and the surrounding area.  We work with other voluntary organisations, housing associations, community and church groups to raise awareness of homelessness as one of the principle contributors to social exclusion.   The Trust aims to be a progressive and developing charity, adjusting to the needs of homeless people that are often very complex.  Over the last few years, for example, the characteristics of homeless people have changed dramatically.  We are now seeing a growing number of young people, women and people with mental health and substance misuse problems presenting at Bishopbridge House.
