Im running to help support The You Foundation

Our essential care packs are full of items to make a patients stay a little easier.  The contants have been thought through to try to help the patient have a more comfortable stay and hopefully eliviate any worries from forgetting basic care items. 

Sudan has a long-standing tradition of hosting refugees. For decades, it has kept its doors open to people fleeing war, hunger and hardship. Importantly, Sudan is one of the major hosting countries for refugees fleeing the deadly conflict in South Sudan. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the education gaps in the country, while the virus keeps spreading. Children are returning to school in unsafe conditions and without protection.

Windle International empowers people to make lasting change in their own lives, in their communities and in wider society. We do this by creating access to quality education and training across East Africa and the Horn of Africa for refugees, communities affected by conflict, and those who have been marginalised in society. We believe that every child should have the capacity to access quality education safely, and reach their full potential.

Community health workers play a vital role in supporting leprosy patients. They can diagnose the disease, train the person in self care and help prevent long term disabilities. 

For as little at £25, a member of the Sanctus Support Hub team can provide 1:1 specialist advice to someone homeless or struggling with other vulnerabilities.

£40 to buy a Buzzy for our family support packs.

Buzzy is a very cute vibrating bee with ice pack wings that decreases sharp pain.

Buzzy®uses natural pain relief by confusing your body's own nerves, thereby dulling or eliminating sharp pain. In the same way that rubbing a bumped elbow helps stop the hurt, or cool running water soothes a burn, Buzzy® bypasses sharp pain. In an emergency department, nurses and doctors can get too busy to wait for numbing creams for needle procedures. For newly diagnosed diabetic children, the medical community has a history of expecting kids to just get used to needle pain. For shots, for bee stings, for boo-boos, for injected medicines, for all acute pain management, Dr. Amy Baxter and her team developed Buzzy® to put instant pain management in YOUR hands.
