(UK, 305739) Browse eventsWelcome to 3rd Farnham Scout Groups fund raising web site with the goal of raising the funds necessary for a much needed refurbishment and repair of its 200 year old headquarters, Daniel Hall, located in the centre of Farnham. Fund raising through grants and other activities has been very successful. Sue Hepburn and Robert Humphrey, who are leading the grant applications, have secured over £180k towards the £220k target. The major grants have come from Farnham Buildings Preservation Trust, SITA Trust and Surrey County Council Community Improvement Fund. Smaller but still vital grants have been gained from Betty Riseley Trust, Round table, Lions and Farnham Institute. This refurbishment is vital to ensure that the group continues to offer adventurous activities and personal development opportunities for young people in central and east Farnham. Without this work the group will not be able to continue its success in doubling its membership in the last 10 years. The repair and refurbishment will provide both structural and amenity improvements including the following: When refurbished, the hall will provide a community facility that is currently missing from the central town area. Background and History 3rd Farnham Scout Group has been established for over 100 years. Our approach focuses on: Daniel Hall has been part of Farnham’s heritage for over 200 years and is listed as a building of local historic significance. It has been a home for Scouting for over 80 years, the Scout Shop for over 30 years and, more recently, a home for a Girl Guiding Company. The Scout Shop provides a service across Surrey and Hampshire with all profits going to support Scouting in Farnham. The building started life supporting the brewing industry as a hop and grain store and latterly became a furniture store. In 1929 it became the new home for the 3rd Farnham Scout Group. The hall was named after Arthur Daniel who was Group Scout Leader at the time and who played a key role in raising the funds to buy the building.
(UK, 700084) Browse eventsBradford Disability Services Limited, better known as Disability Advice Bradford (DaB) and Disability Equipment Bradford (DeB) is a long established and respected Registered Charity. The organization was first established as The Bradford Voluntary Action Group for Disabled Persons in 1979 as a result of five disabled people coming together to press for their rights and to overcome the discrimination in many aspects of daily life that can affect the lives of disabled people. The ‘office’ was a room in one of the founder member’s houses. Since then the charity has evolved in many ways but the organizations core values still remain the same. Our aim is to empower people with disabilities, carers and their families, living within the Bradford Metropolitan District, to achieve and lead a high quality of life within a modern and inclusive society. We will achieve this by providing professional, non-judgmental and confidential services that will facilitate and improve independent living and equality.

(UK, 1159566) Browse eventsCreating Futures, A charity for children and young people in Rushmoor. Our mission is simple, we aim to improve our communities by supporting children and young people to overcome barriers, through raising aspiration and enabling achievement. Established in April 2014 we have developed as a charity from the seeds of a project called The Gaming Zone, which has been around since 2007. Initially a youth club for young people living in one of the top 20% areas of deprivation in England our intention was clear, providing opportunities for young people to stay off the streets in a warm, welcoming and nurturing environment where they could play the latest consoles, access the internet and be safe. 5 years later we became a social enterprise TGZ C.I.C (community interest company) and a little over 2 years later our organic growth has blossomed into the charity that aims to support all children and young people in Rushmoor and especially those facing adversity, crisis, challenges and those who are vulnerable. You can still visit our TGZ CIC website for information about all our projects that were developed under The Gaming Zone umbrella and will now be under the secure wing of the Creating Futures charity. We work with hundreds of children and young people each week and also offer a range of support services which you can read all about on this site. We work with many agencies and organisations such as Rushmoor Borough Council, Hampshire County Council, First Wessex, Sentinel, Children’s Services, Adult Services, the Supporting Families programme, other youth groups and youth focussed organisations and many many more!
