Im running to help support Young at Heart

We have devised these mini packs full of sachets for short visits.  They contain everything that our main packages do, but on a smaller scale.  We have designated stands in hospitals for these where the patients can help themselves, or they are postbiox sized so can be sent in the post if needed.  

The people we support love to take part in art activities of all sorts and we regularly go through lots of supplies. It would be great if you could support us in purchasing some extra equipment; things like paint, pens, pencils, easels, canvses, clay, tools etc. 

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.

Our music studio has been running since 2008, offering young people the opportunity to express themselves and learn how to write and record music. Our trained sound technitians work with young people twice weekly to explore issues that are important to them and put it into something positive and expressive.

Your donation will go towards the costs of providing tuition to a child who uses English as an additional language living in Bristol or Oxford. This includes recruiting and training a volunteer tutor, providing teaching resources and access to an online learning platform. It also covers the cost for the child and their family to attend one of our fun kids’ events or activities.

Little ones expecting a baby to arrive home and then not understanding why this hasn’t happened may struggle with their emotions, school and everyday life. We want to help relieve the stresses of dealing with this alongside your loss and therefore have developed a Play Therapy Service for our families.

Play therapy is a therapeutic approach developed to help children between the ages of three to twelve years old.

Our therapists work with a child to explore and resolve any issues around the loss of their sibling through the therapeutic use of play. This involves using toys, drawings, story telling and other creative tools in order to help heal the child in a positive and creative way.

Be Well Collective provides monthly workshops which unite young people as a part of the Be Well community. Lead by an expert health professional, who provides an educational workshop to teach practical tools and skills to young people to help improve their mental health and wellbeing.

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.
