When	Amount/ Spending	Recipient	To be used for
01/04/2024	£30,000	CHANGING RELATIONS	Based in Durham, Changing Relations uses the arts to break down gender barriers and foster healthy relationships. Through film and theatre to creative writing, they address sensitive subjects such as domestic abuse, gender stereotypes and sexting risks. In 2023, they worked with 300 professionals and 250 young people, with 100% of youth workers feeling more confident to explore domestic abuse with the young. A lack of capacity is preventing them from seizing partnership and income opportunities. With The Fore’s funding, Changing Relations will be able to strengthen their financial resilience as they expand to meet demand. Improving communications with a website redesign and developing CPD courses to take to the market will unlock many new partnership opportunities and help diversify their income streams.
01/04/2024	£30,000 £320,579	CLEAR SKY CHILDREN'S CHARITY	Clear Sky uses play and creative arts to transform the lives of children affected by the trauma of bereavement and domestic violence.

With 2,400 therapy sessions delivered last year, 95% of children displayed well-being improvements. They offer professional development support for therapists, teachers, and social workers partly via their online portal. The portal has attracted interest from the NHS and local authorities, but technological constraints limit its uptake and potential. Our funding will allow Clear Sky to support more children by expanding the portal’s offering, increasing usage and bolstering finances. This will also pave the way to a significant national influencing role in the sector.
01/04/2024	£29,312 £60,698	COMMUNITY INTEGRATION AND ADVOCACY CENTRE	Community Integration and Advocacy Centre (CIAC) supports emerging communities, such as refugees and asylum seekers, to resettle and contribute to life fully in the UK. Primarily based in The Humber, they support people, many of whom have escaped persecution, to navigate the challenges of arriving in a new country. Offering general advice, including on accessing accommodation, and specialist immigration advice, they supported 1,500 people in 2023. With over 50% of initial asylum claimants unable to secure Legal Aid, demand for CIAC is accelerating. So too is the complexity of their cases. Our funding will give CIAC the capacity to gain formal accreditation. Accreditation will professionalise CIAC’s existing practices, enabling them to keep pace with the more complex needs of clients and assist them in attracting additional funding including from local authorities.
01/04/2024	£30,000 £96,829	EVERY FUTURE FOUNDATION (REGSITERED AS "BREAKFAST CLUBS AGAINST RACISM")	Every Future Foundation foster racial equality by creating a new generation of leaders to drive change.

They have piloted an innovative paid service for schools, providing specialised training for staff to challenge racism and promote equality. The pilot has been incredibly well received with more schools keen to participate. Our funding will provide upfront capital to develop their sustainable unrestricted income streams, boosting their capacity and financial resilience as they expand to meet demand for their services.
01/04/2024	£30,000	EVERYDAY PLASTIC CIC	Everyday Plastic’s vision is a society where everyone leads a life with less plastic. Through campaigning and awareness raising, Everyday Plastic are pushing for improved regulations and practice around plastic usage, and inspiring individuals to change their behaviour across the UK. Their efforts are gaining momentum; a quarter of a million people took part in their National household Big Plastic Count, and supermarkets are knocking on their door to understand how they can do better on single-use fruit and veg packaging. With funding from The Fore, they will hire a Head of Campaigns to capitalise on their growing momentum, establish new funded partnerships and expand their reach and impact. Ultimately it will catapult them from the UK to the global arena.
01/04/2024	£30,000 £40,552	FACE EQUALITY INTERNATIONAL	Face Equality International is creating a world where everyone is treated fairly whatever their face looks like. Run by Phyllida Swift, who has personal experience with facial scarring, they combat the injustices and violations facially different people experience, from hate crimes to infanticide. They run a global alliance of organisations that advance face equality through public awareness and legislative reforms, rather than medical fixes. Last year, their Face Equality campaign reached 1 million people. With recent research highlighting the extent of the human rights atrocities facially different people face, they are more determined than ever to grow their alliance. Through recruiting a Communications Officer, our funding will increase the CEO’s capacity so she can pursue funding opportunities, grow the alliance and deliver FEI’s global strategy.

01/04/2024	£30,000 £165,978	HOTEL SCHOOL	Launched in 2017 in London, Hotel School combats unemployment amongst homeless and vulnerable people by teaching hospitality skills. 75% of Hotel School’s graduates go on to sustained employment within the hospitality industry, while the remaining 25% go into further training, volunteering or work in related sectors. With cases of homelessness rising exponentially, demand for Hotel School’s support is soaring. Hotel School will be using The Fore’s investment to recruit a Programme Coordinator to handle day-to day programme delivery and focus on improving and scaling their offer. This will free up capacity within the leadership to build the charity’s overall financial stability as they address the challenges of growing the charity and its impact to meet demand.

This is complemented by one-to-one support. 87% of workshop attendees said skills learned help them to be more independent. Statutory adult social care services are shrinking, with 42% of existing members not receiving any statutory support. Unsurprisingly, demand for Love4Life’s support is skyrocketing, but their IT infrastructure is hindering their growth. Love4Life will use our funding to revamp their website and implement a CRM system to upscale their impact and reach in underserved communities. It will also support enhanced fundraising efforts.
01/04/2024	£30,000	MAFWA THEATRE	Mafwa Theatre brings refugees, asylum seekers and settled communities together in Leeds to combat social isolation and create cohesive communities.

This includes working with individuals leaving mental health hospitals, many of whom would be unable to integrate back into the community without support from RL:RC. Waiting lists have grown for their services. The Fore’s funding will allow them to employ a Retail Development Worker to create a permanent space to sell the high-quality products made by charity users.

These programmes are winning change, with for example, alumni being instrumental in the introduction of free bus travel for 16-18 year olds across Greater Manchester. Through their sought after consultancy offer, RECLAIM also supports companies to become more inclusive of working class talent to create a fairer workplace.

01/04/2024	£30,000 £57,879	SAY APHASIA	Say Aphasia support people to adapt to a life with aphasia, a condition that can restrict speech, reading, and writing abilities. Say Aphasia was founded by CEO Colin Lyall after developing the condition following a stroke. Their support groups are led by people with aphasia and enable hundreds of people to regain their independence and confidence post-diagnosis. Given that statutory provision of speech and language therapy only lasts 16 weeks, Say Aphasia’s continuous support fills a crucial gap. Consequently, they are in high demand, with requests to establish groups in at least five new areas. With our funding they will hire a Volunteer Coordinator to expand and strengthen their network of groups and volunteers. Funding will also enable them to forge new partnerships and focus on fundraising to ensure long-term sustainability.
01/04/2024	£30,000 £2,709	SOUND WAVES FOUNDATION	Established in 2022 by mothers of deaf children, Sound Waves are reframing deafness as deafability rather than disability so deaf young people can flourish in life and education. Their Actions For Captions project assists schools to leverage technological advancements like live captioning to make education more accessible, while their after-school clubs break down stigma by teaching hearing and deaf children together. Sound Waves have schools queuing up for their services, but they lack capacity. With our funding, the founders will have double the time to propel the charity forward. This will allow them to scale their projects, grow revenue streams and build partnerships to ultimately achieve their mission of normalising and celebrating deafness in schools and society.

This approach works, with zero permanent exclusions since their programme began. As school suspensions and exclusions rise post-Covid, there is a growing need for alternative provision within mainstream schools.

There is no known cure for CF but a major part of treatment is prescribing chest physiotherapy through Inhaler units.

Playphysio was established by a father whose eldest daughter suffers from CF to address this problem. It does so by gamifying the chest physio process, attaching a relay device to existing breathing devices which connects to smartphones and onto an app. The results of a trial exceeded expectations; users experienced a 4% increase in lung function (compared to a typical 2% decrease and 4% decrease with users who dropped out of the trial). Average compliance with chest physio targets was 60% (3 times higher than normal). Playphysio is using funding from The Fore to hire specialist physiotherapists, who will enable the organisation to rollout its work into Addenbrookes and Birmingham hospitals and ultimately sell its products across the UK.

With only a quick intervention, this model achieves results in nine months that would take three years using traditional teaching methods, while also providing stable employment and experience to local young people.

01/12/2019	£29,437	GREATER CHANGE	Greater Change was founded by Alex McCallion, who, while volunteering with homelessness charities, saw many homeless people fail to progress into work, training or housing because they lacked relatively small sums of money - for example, £300 for a construction course, £80 for ID or £1,000 as a rent deposit.
