The Black Prince Trust is a not-for-profit charity whose primary purpose is to manage and develop the Black Prince Community Hub in London, South London.

The Teesside Charity was established in March 2011 to provide social and economic opportunities that would not otherwise have existed in the area. Formerly the Middlesbrough and Teesside Philanthropic Foundation, the charity's key function is to financially support community groups and charities based within Teesside, which promote social wellbeing and provide support to those who find themselves at a disadvantage in the society they live in. These include but are not exclusively the homeless, those recovering from an addiction, the long-term unemployed, those living in poverty or living with a disability and employment schemes. The Teesside Charity helps those on the margins of society be involved in society and not excluded from opportunities. Teesside is a deprived area of the UK. It has higher crime rates, more pupils eligible for free school meals and higher unemployment than the national average. However, it also has great resilience and motivation to excel in areas.

The Active Wellbeing Society (TAWS) is a community benefit society and cooperative working to develop healthy, happy communities living active and connected lives. Our vision is for a society where people have the autonomy, capacity, resources and skills to become the architects of their own destiny; where our individual wellbeing is recognised as being bound up in our collective responsibility to and dependency on each other; and where all of us feel empowered as agents of social change to make a difference - whether at an individual level or more widely. By working collaboratively with communities we aim to bring about sustainable change on an social, environmental and economic level; to do the social knitting required to create stronger and more resilient communities and to support communities to identify, mitigate and remove the barriers that prevent them from living active and connected lives.

Champions Community Sport and Health CIC was established in September 2020, by our Director Craig Gilmore. Having delivered sport in the South Leeds community for over 18 years, Craig identified that a large proportion of children/young adults in South Leeds whose families were struggling financially, didn't have the funds to join the more traditional sports clubs/organised activities in the area, and consequently were becoming increasingly inactive, hungry, socially isolated and in some cases, involved in local gangs and anti-social behaviour. In response to this problem, we started to provide FREE turn up and play football sessions for children/young adults in the South Leeds area. Sessions are every Saturday 10.30am - 11.30am on Hunslet Moor in Beeston, Leeds. We also include breakfast and lunch as most arrive hungry and don't go home. Our aim is to make sport available to young people, who live in what is one of the most deprived areas of Leeds, irrespective of their age, ability and background. Our first session was attended by 18 children/young people and our most recent by 102, with 410 names on our database. This has been achieved through word of mouth, and because Craig (our Director) has the trust of the children/young people and their families living in the area, having taught many of them from the age of 4 years old. Approximately 98% of those attending are of a Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic (BAME) background, which reflects the diversity of the local population. We also run camps in the school holidays Easter, Summer and Christmas. This is to address the free school meal gap, ensuring each child doesn't go hungry during these weeks.

Cumbria Community Foundation exists to tackle poverty and disadvantage and strengthen Cumbria's communities by connecting fund holders and people who give us money with inspirational, life changing projects.

Founded in 2018, the ITTF Foundation was created by the International Table Tennis Federation as an independent nonprofit organization. The Foundation aims to create positive impacts through table tennis in communities worldwide. The ITTF Foundation operates through five programs to foster development through table tennis, contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The team tirelessly designs and implements initiatives that promote inclusivity, education, and empowerment, ensuring that the sport becomes a catalyst for positive social change. As a nonprofit organization we collaborate closely with local project implementation partners while we assist with planning, financial support, and knowledge sharing. Additionally, we connect with the Parkinson's community globally to promote the use of table tennis for enhancing well-being and health, particularly against neurodegenerative diseases.

Believe & Achieve is our school motto. We aim to offer our children engaging and enriching opportunities to allow them to develop the knowledge, skills and resilience they need to achieve in our ever changing and culturally diverse world. We are a growing school family with a shared drive and determination to ensure all of our children reach their full potential across all aspects of our broad, balanced and bespoke Coxhoe curriculum. Staff and governors believe that it is a privilege to guide your children through their Primary School journey and are passionate about their important role. Our school community is based upon positive relationships that are underpinned by mutual respect. Smiles and laughter are a key part of each and every day: happy children make fantastic learners. We have high expectations in all aspects of school life; visitors often comment on the high standards of behaviour, the warm welcome they receive and the enjoyment in school life. The community supporting Coxhoe Primary School is one of its many strengths and we value it hugely. The support we have from parents is second to none and we encourage honest and open dialogue; if you have queries or concerns about any aspects of school life, please make sure that you come and talk to us. Likewise - when you are particularly happy with something at school - it's also lovely to hear about that too! Our children are at the heart of everything we do and every decision made. As a parent of two teenage daughters, I am well aware of the challenges that today's society places on our children. In this climate, it is even more important to help our children become resilient and prepared for those challenges - through their experiences here in our school family. We will therefore endeavour to ensure that your children leave Coxhoe Primary School having had fun, done their best and feeling proud of their achievements; this will allow them to be ready to face the next challenges, not only in their education, but also in their life.

The charities mission is to improve the health and general well-being of our community, through health initiatives, formal and informal educational sessions, advocacy, advice and guidance sessions, peer to peer support, recreational activities etc, we aim to improve the quality of life and reduce social and economic constraints in our society. After covid and major spends on the old church building we operate from our finances were stretched to the limit and we considered closure. Due to the demand for activities and services we decided to continue as best we could. We are in the process of redecorating rooms to provide therapies, a sensory room, a dementia group and occupational therapy to address requests from numerous community residents and health groups. As our website is about the history of the charity we need an urgent update, a volunteer from John Moores University has offered to do this for us. We do not have a current newsletter but we do have an infographic about our achievement over a five year period as example of the good work carried out and the impact. We have won numerous prestigious awards to include "The Points of Light" awards from the then Prime Minister Theresa May. The ITV Good Morning Britain Team awarded the manager/founder a 'Special Recognition Award' which appeared on screen Christmas 2020. Our charity has worked with the Princes Trust and the Groundwork Trust, both excellent for the progress of young people. There is a video on YOU TUBE of our past projects, we will be continuing a lot of similar projects in the future; I am hoping to attach some files later if possible, files such as the Annual Report and the Infographic. Since deciding to remain open we have been fortunate to work in partnership with a number of groups such as MerseyCare NHS, Merseyside Youth Association, Knowsley Disability Concern, Social Prescribing via GP's, Police, Veterans, Schools and more. The charity is volunteer led. Our request is for funding to gain a project manager who will over-see all projects and will supervise a number of project facilitators.

Every day, lives are changed by a single, selfless act - the gift of organ donation. Among those waiting for transplants are 2 groups of people: those who die waiting and those who receive the gift of life. Our work raises awareness of the urgent need for organ and tissue donors while helping recipients who have overcome the impossible to live life to the fullest. These individuals have faced life's greatest challenges; they are advocates for the cause but need resources, education and community. Transplant recipients have a unique opportunity to advocate for organ donation and raise awareness. Physical activity plays a crucial role in the recovery and long-term health of recipients. When recipients compete in world events, they demonstrate to the world what can be achieved through the gift of organ donation. Additionally, our programs provide recipients with community, tools, and resources to address the many challenges they face, leading to an increased quality of life. The WTGF promotes amateur sport amongst recipients, living donors and donor families; promoting the study of transplantation; educating the public and raising awareness of the world shortage of donor organs; sharing new knowledge from biological/clinical studies; promotion of mental and moral improvement for recipients, living donors and donor families; fostering international friendship and relations.
