Im running to help support The Pied Piper Appeal

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.

When a new outlet joins our scheme we send them a starter pack including 25x chips, window stickers, leaflets and posters for people to learn/read about us. This pack also means they have what they need to start selling the chips and bring warm drinks to our rough sleepers. By you granting us this wish we can help more cafes and coffee shops bring more hot drinks to people who need it. Thank you in advance

It is crucial that people who have been affected by leprosy are provided with the means with which to secure a livelihood. A sewing machine means that they can work as a tailor and mend clothes, giving them both an income and a purpose within their community. 

Forever Angels supports orphaned and abandoned babies by providing life saving formula milk at our Interim Care Home as well as to babies in the community being raised by relatives.   20 women die in childbirth every day in Tanzania, leaving behind 20 babies at risk of malnutrition and death.  We provide these babies with the necessary nutrition to keep them alive and be able to thrive.  £50 supports a baby with milk for one month - esentally saving its life.  Thank you for your kind support. 

People with leprosy often lose feeling in their feet, leaving them more likely to sustain injury. This special footwear helps prevent cuts and ulcers, meaning the person can walk more comfortably and be more mobile. This can mean the difference between being able to work and not, so has a huge impact on their livelihood. 

We have lots of personal allotment beds for the people we support and wheelbarrows are a great way of helping them to move items around and with clearing. We also have our farm with goats and pigs and our own Garden Centre. Plenty of places where wheelbarrows are needed and we will also use some money to purhcase 2 wheeled wheel barrows to help indiviudals with mobility issues. 

The Boarding School is the name of our new indoor skateboarding project. We've got a hall full of ramps at our youth centre that we set up each week for young rippers. Your wish will help us provide skateboard tuition to a young person to help them progress and earn locally recognised accreditation.

Your donation will cover the costs involved in setting up a new cafe or restaurant to be part of the BillyChip®️ scheme.

BillyChip®️ Foundation registered charity 1188779 was set up in 2018 to continue the legacy of Billy Abernethy-Hope a twenty-year-old ambulance driver from Bristol who was the inspiration and idea behind the BillyChip®️. After helping support the homeless at Christmas, Billy felt disheartened at how little support the general public gave to local homeless people. Many people donate to charity on a regular basis but Billy was surprised what a small percentage of donations were given directly to people living rough on our streets. Turns out most people are apprehensive to give money directly to homeless people because it's not possible to know how a donation is spent.

Unfortunately, the common perception is the money will be used for alcohol, drugs or cigarettes. Even if a donation of food or drink is given to safeguard your donation, it is very awkward as people have to make assumptions of what the person would like and when. The alternative is to engage with that person, ask the question and purchase what’s required which many feel uncomfortable doing. Billy recognized that the likelihood of someone having the time, inclination, courage, and kindness to engage with a homeless person to buy them food or drink was too big a challenge. That was the eureka moment when he first thought up the concept of the BillyChip®️. Sadly Billy never got to launch the BillyChip as planned due to his untimely death whilst backpacking in Thailand.
