Someone who has been treated for leprosy will wish to secure their future by working again, but are often unable to return to their previous physical labour. The gift of a small business means that they can generate their own income, providing for both themselves and their family. 

Surgical intervention can prevent people who have leprosy from sustaining long-term disabilities, which as well as stopping them from earning income, can have a huge impact on both their mental health and their daily lives. 

Cherished Gowns UK is a charity that provides the families of babies that are stillborn, miscarried or pass away shortly after birth with items of clothing that they are able to be dressed in for their funeral. We offer five sizes of Cherished Gowns, and each gown is accompanied by a hat, pair of booties, a blanket and a cloth nappy. These items are provided completely free of charge to parents, funeral directors, and we also supply every UK hospital with this service. All of the items that we provide are lovingly made by volunteers around the UK, from donated Wedding Dresses.

A wish of £40 funds a specialist counselling session to help patients and families move forward after a devastating and  life changing brain tumour diagnosis.

Childhood cancer is the most common medical cause of death of children in the UK. Every year, just under 4,000 children and young adults receive this life changing diagnosis. The Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust is working to raise awareness of childhood cancer and the signs and symptoms with which it may present. We produce educational resources for parents and clinicians, provide support to families and fund research into rare cancers of childhood. The Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust was founded in memory of 4 year old Grace Kelly who passed away in 2014. The vision of the Trust was born from the inspiration that Grace imparted on the people she met. Grace was a compassionate and caring little girl, who looked after others before herself. We are making a difference to other children whilst fulfilling Grace's wish of helping others. Because The Children Of Today All Deserve A Tomorrow

Our new skate school project has been really busy in it's first few weeks. It's great to be welcoming young people back into the youth centre again. We'd really like to add to the equipment we have on offer and this donation will enable us to purchase a new slappy box. What's that? well its a grind-able box for skateboarding, that allows the skaters to 'slap' or ride straight onto it, much more easy and accessible to new skaters!

It is a huge donation so our young people are putting their subs towards the box too (it's total cost is £175). The box will be dedicated in your name if you wish, or just a personalised message and create years of memories and fun in our Skate School.

Changes Bristol is a charity that helps people in mental health distress. We offer peer support groups, telephone befriending and a walking service. We work with over 100 volunteers who help us to run all of our support networks. A donation of £150 will cover the cost to train a volunteer facilitator. 

Changes Bristol support over 1,000 people with poor mental health and without volunteers, the charity would not be able to run. We actively consider people who have lived experience of low mental wellbeing, with extensive training and support throughout. 

Not only does volunteering with Changes offer a spring board into a support service career path, it is also an extremely rewarding opportunity to help others.
