Opportunities for all - TBF seeks to open doors for children and adults with learning difficulties who may have their opportunities to develop or to enhance their life skills thwarted through lack of funds. The Tony Barnard Foundation was formed in memory of Tony Barnard.Tony suffered a massive brain trauma and adapted to life as a disabled man for over twenty years. He endured several months of total blindness and he learned how to cope in his dark world. This equipped him with new and different strategies with which to face life. Tony had been a very successful business man prior to his trauma and was a great believer in the power of the marketing and networking tools. Having lost the use of 50% of his body Tony never allowed the disability to constrain his desire to continue to network and support, encourage and help others. Tony made often made friends of those who found friendship a struggle. He understood what it was to have your confidence shattered and your world shrink through trauma. Working together The aim of the Foundation is to support in whatever way we can. The Foundation will raise funds that can be distributed to open doors for some and take the pressure off others. None of the money raised will go to employ people—all the money raised will be to offer direct relief or to offer individuals, groups or families opportunities to enhance their quality of life. Who will benefit We will aim to support those with a learning difficulty to enable them to be more independent and to have the opportunity to participate in the community in which they live.

Thank you for visiting our profile page on MyDonate.Spear IslingtonA registered charity seeking to stimulate social transformation in our community. By running the Spear Programme we ‘ignite a vision of the possible’ in unemployed young people, we build their confidence and we help release their ability to implement life-changing choices. The Spear ProgrammeA highly-interactive, award-winning year-long coaching programme that equips and supports disadvantaged 16 to 24 year olds not in education, employment or training (NEET) with the attitudes and skills to find long-term employment. The programme tackles deep-rooted issues which prevent the young people from moving forward with their lives and helps them to see what is possible for them. They learn to better manage their emotions, they grow in their ability to communicate both professionally and personally and they start to take responsibility for their lives. 75% of those who complete the initial six weeks not only go into work or training but are still there a year later. Spear helps young people to find work and, in so doing, find themselves. Please donate to support our cause.The Spear Programme is aimed at disadvantaged young people who often face multiple issues and require significant support. Islington is the seventh most deprived borough in London. A third of children in the area live in poverty and a third in workless households which is the highest percentage in London. Islington is a magnet for thousands of students and young professionals but has pockets of disadvantage where young people are not able to benefit from the opportunities around them, leading to social divisions. Studies have demonstrated that unemployment negatively impacts a young person in the long-term, affecting their self-esteem and future earnings. The young people we are working with experience a range of disadvantage; on average 49% received free school meals, 63% are from workless households, 57% have less than five GCSEs. Many of our young people also suffer from depression and anxiety and, for many, their confidence is at rock bottom. We help up to 90 young people a year at a cost of £1000 per person. All the money we receive goes directly to helping these young people. It is an investment in all our futures. Charity No: 1167900
