YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, 1178096) Thank you for visiting our profile page on MyDonate.The Swan Song Project gives people facing end of life and bereavement the opportunity to write and record an original song. All songs are then recorded and put on cds for participants and their loved ones to keep. Participants are also given the option of sharing their song on The Swan Song Project website www.swansongproject.co.uk.Our songwriters work closely with all participants to help create a song that says what they want it to say and sounds how they want it to sound. Many participants choose to have their songs played at their funerals.We currently work with several hospices offering the service to all their patients as well as their loved ones both before and after bereavement. Over time we would like to offer the service in the community as well.The Swan Song Project also offers group activities at the hospices including singing for patients with breathing difficulties, hospice choirs and music groups involving a range of different instruments. Please donate to support our cause.The Swan Song Project began at Marie Curie Hospice in Bradford in May 2017 and has been incredibly well received. Some of the benefits are:Helps participants to reflect on their lives and the person they are beyond their Illness often offering new perspectives.Is a means of communicating difficult emotions to loved ones in a beautiful and lasting way.Creates a unique and personal piece of art that can live on for many years to come.Creates a huge sense of pride in participants in what they have created. Many are very keen for others to hear their song.Listeners get a greater understanding of who the person is, what is important to them and what their experience of facing end of life is like.Provides participants with an enjoyable and positive distraction that is in their controlA family member recently said The Swan Song Project lifted his Mums spirit for the final months of her life.We are a new and expanding organisation and all support and donations makes a real difference to helping us develop this service and make it available to more people.Please follow the facebook page for updates www.facebook.com/theswansongproject.Thank You Charity No: 1178096 Find out more Website Please click here to visit our website Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheSwanSongProject/ Twitter http://www.twitter.com/SwanSongProUK YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeIROU1GnMDJUQj7z3mZQ3g

YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, 1119721) Significant progress has been made over the last decade towards the elimination of paediatric HIV. Yet, each day approximately 700 children are still infected with HIV. 90% of these children live in sub-Saharan Africa and approximately half of children infected with HIV will die before age two if the virus is untreated. This situation is both tragic and unnecessary, as it is almost entirely preventable. mothers2mothers (m2m) is changing that. We believe in the power of women to eliminate paediatric HIV and create health and hope for themselves and their babies, families, and communities. We train, employ, and empower Mentor Mothers, who are mothers living with HIV, to work alongside doctors and nurses in understaffed health centres as members of the healthcare team. In one-on-one and group sessions, Mentor Mothers provide essential health education and psychosocial support to other HIV-positive mothers on how they can protect their babies from HIV infection, and keep themselves and their families healthy. Mentor Mothers’ ties to the community and first hand-hand knowledge of HIV makes them highly effective peer mentors. Since our founding in 2001, we have reached more than 1.2 million HIV-positive mothers in nine countries with essential health education and psychosocial support, and have helped establish affiliated Mentor Mother programmes in two additional countries. mothers2mothers has now enhanced the scope of its work to provide education, support, and referrals on a wide range of health issues important to our clients and critical to improving their overall health , including TB, cervical cancer, nutrition, neonatal male circumcision, gender-based violence, malaria reproductive health, and family planning. No baby should be born with HIV and no mother should die of HIV. Together we can eliminate paediatric HIV.
