Our work is grounded in the ethos of a place where people live and work together in healthy social relationships based on mutual care and respect. Central to this is valuing each person as a unique being of intrinsic worth, with potential for spiritual, moral, intellectual and physical development and change.All gifts received in 2017 will go towards our new Life Skills Centre which is a building project costing just over £530,000. It will be of long term benefit to generations of young people and will enable pupils to attain the necessary skills that will prepare them for the challenges of an adult lifeWe are very grateful for each gift received.Before going to Ochil Tower School my son was a frustrated and sometimes aggressive young man, still very dependent on us. Since joining the school, his independent living skills have improved immeasurably, he is happy, confident and calm and that means he is more able to concentrate in class and so is also learning more effectively - Parent Find out more Website Please click here to visit our website

YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, 1141222) To donate in lieu of buying tickets for the Rosita Trust Midsummer Festival, please pay as normal and write a message in the box, stating what you are donating for. LAST ORDERS MIDNIGHT THURSDAY 21ST JUNE ........HAPPY SOLSTICE! The Rosita Trust was launched in May 2011 to commemorate Polly Renton and her daughter Rosita Fenwick Wilson. The charity is focused on media development and ethical journalism in Kenya. In 2001 Polly arrived in Kenya as a young television director, making documentaries for Channel 4. She was frustrated by what she saw on Kenyan television - soap operas, re-runs ofold sitcoms, chat shows and low quality local news programmes. She felt that Kenyans deserved better and established MEDEVA (Media Development in Africa) www.medevatv.com A decade after she arrived in Kenya, MEDEVA continues to flourish. It makes several highly popular TV programmes for nationwide broadcast and it has trained over two hundred young people from East Africa in TV and Radio programme making. Many have won major awards. The Rosita Trust helps identify and offer young Africans an opportunity to have a voice,often in adversity, through filmmaking and radio. It also gives one-off grants to other worthwhile causes in Kenya. This is what Polly believed in, and would have continued to do. The Trust is administered under the trusteeship of Polly's family and friends.Its patrons are the film-maker Lord Puttnam, and the veteran broadcasters, David Dimbleby and Sir David Frost.

We provide free, independent, confidential and impartial advice to people with a wide variety of issues; giving them the knowledge and confidence they need to find a way forward.

Serving a population in Kent of over 450,000, we provide face-to-face and telephone advice from Advice Centres in Tonbridge, Sevenoaks, Swanley, Dartford and Gravesend, along with outreaches in more isolated areas. Whilst we help anyone, we target our services towards the most vulnerable in our community, including older people, those on low incomes, people with physical and mental health difficulties etc. We have specialists focusing on high-need and complex issues including debt, benefits, housing and immigration. In addition to our general advice services, we also work proactively with programmes such as budgeting support, scams awareness and energy advice. These help us to get out into our community and help people to develop the skills and knowledge to avoid problems and avoid crisis. What difference we make: We helped 8,000 clients with over 21,000 separate issues last year to not only find solutions to their problems, but also build the knowledge needed to avoid problems and become empowered to resolve issues on their own in the future.
