We've
listed several well-known
charities
that we believe are doing important work around the world and in the
UK. Their
main activities are summarised below. More information is
available from the charity websites.
If
you
decide to donate, and there's no obligation, a small
monthly charitable donation of e.g £2 to £5 is
typical
and can make all the difference.
You can securely and easily give
online to the charity
of your choice. Our links take you to the charities' own
websites. One-off charity payments or gift purchases are also
available.
Just 50p a day can
transform a child’s life and give a child in poverty the opportunity to
receive the education, clean water and health care they urgently need. ActionAid works hard with communities so
that they can overcome the numerous problems that they face.
ChildLine, the
confidential
helpline for children, aims to
provide a secure space for children in distress or at risk of abuse,
and who have no one to turn to. The service gives support and
counselling to children, advice on how they can make choices to change
their lives, and takes action to protect children at serious risk.
With your help,
they can
extend
our reach to even more children.
Every day, 4500 children call and yet only 2500 get through to someone
who can help. You can help them achieve their targets.
The NSPCC
exists
to change our society and bring about an end to cruelty to children.
Their vision is to help create an environment where all children are
valued and able to fulfil their potential. To this end, they seek to
protect abused children and those at risk of abuse and develop
programmes of action to help rescue and protect vulnerable children.
The British Red
Cross
helps people in crisis, whoever and wherever they are. It is part of a
global voluntary network, responding to conflicts, natural disasters
and individual emergencies. The British Red Cross enable vulnerable
people in the UK and abroad to prepare for and withstand emergencies in
their own communities. And when the crisis is over, The British Red
Cross help them recover and move on with their lives.
Cancer Research
UK is
the world's leading independent
organisation dedicated to cancer research. With an annual scientific
spend of £217 million, the charity funds over 3,000
world-class scientists, doctors and nurses across the UK. The
organisation is making significant progress – thanks to earlier
detection and improved treatments, survival rates have improved for
nearly all cancers. But there is still so much more to do. To fund its
vital long term research projects, Cancer Research UK needs regular
support. To this end, supporters can set up a direct debit online for
as little as £2 a month. Together
we will beat
cancer.
PDSA is the UK’s leading
veterinary charity. This year they will provide over 1.8 million free
treatments to sick and injured pets. Right now, they have a special
group of patients who have long-term illnesses and are in desperate
need of help. They are looking for kind people to sponsor these
pets.
Thank you for your visit.
