MELTON VINEYARD |
The funding would enable us to pay two staff members to work in communications, admin and professional development, training and supervision. Their time spent on these areas has increased considerably as the service has grown and expanded in working with individuals and groups. We provide one-to-one in person mental health support for depression, anxiety, stress-related issues, specialist trauma support and bereavement and loss. The current rate of expansion means that we couldn't sustain the level of excellence in our service in the future, providing a quick response to referrals and minimum waiting time, without a major increase in staff hours. Neither could we guarantee increase in volunteer listeners and trainee counsellors without the funding for staff with the necessary expertise to provide essential training. Our passion and plan is to develop more resources and offer more groups to provide help with abuse survivors, women?s issues and a holistic CBT group for anxiety and depression. |

GIVE A BOOK |
Funding towards Raising Readers: a family reading project connecting parents with their children despite the distance and difficult circumstances. We send in 100 books every quarter from a bespoke booklist The booklists are refreshed quarterly, so there are always fun festive titles. The booklist is broken down into 6 age categories, and we let prisons choose how many of each title they'd like. The prison will have a better idea of the ages of the prisoners' children and may request more of one age band. With Raising Readers we offer the parent (or any relation - it can be opened up to uncles, siblings, grandparents etc) a copy both to gift their child the book along with a bookplate that they can fill in and stick in the cover, a message from them to make it that extra bit special which is then sent home and then the parent/relation can also keep a copy. This allows the family to share the story over the phone, on a video visit or during an in-person visit when possible. |

THE KING'S ARMS YOUTH PROJECT |
The aim of this project is to support Young Carers. Funding towtards running an "exploration programme" that helps young carers to understand their role, the challenges they face, and what support is available to them. Specifically, the aims of the exploration programme are for the young people: To have increased self-esteem Many Young Carers struggle to cope with their caring roles. They may lack confidence, have low self-esteem or struggle with their identity. They may feel guilty that they are not doing a good enough job either by not caring properly or not looking after siblings needs; at the same time they may feel resentment or not look after themselves at the expense of others. They may feel frustrated at having no control. They may feel they are an expert in their family but nobody takes their views seriously. They can become very disheartened about their own personal future resulting in apathy towards their education. They often have lower grades than their contemporaries. They can have low school attendance or have risky behaviours. To have greater emotional resilience Young Carers often have a lack of appropriate emotional support. They do not want to put their already strained parents under additional pressure. They often do not want to identify themselves as a Young Carer due to fear, stigma or being negatively labelled. They do not want to stand out as being different for fear of bullying. They may worry about what is going on at home and how they are coping at school. They may have feelings they do not understand. They often do not have time to spend with friends or be involved in out of school activities and they can feel no sense of relief from the complexities of their life. It is often said that they miss childhood experiences and the opportunity to be "normal". To have better positive relationships Young Carers often feel isolated and lonely. They can experience a lack of empathy from friends who do not understand their caring role. They can feel they are an outsider and that no one understands their situations. They can hide their caring role from other relatives, friends, schools, medics and services through lack of trust or fear of intervention. They may fear being judged, letting the family down, having the family split up and being terrified of being taken into care. They may have a lack of appropriate parental input or little opportunity to have positive, quality family time. They may not have someone they can talk to who understands. |

DREAMFLIGHT |
Each year Dreamflight takes a plane full of children (with a serious illness or disability) to Orlando for 10 days. The trip gives them a chance to discover independence, confidence and a whole new outlook on life. The aim of our project each year is to give 192 children (from 12 separate regions of the UK) a holiday of a lifetime. During the trip, we visit a different theme park or attraction each day (eg Universal Studios, Hollywood Studios, SeaWorld etc) and provide entertainment each morning and evening. Dreamflight aims to help these children realise their potential by doing something medicine can't: give confidence, independence and a sense of fun. With the help of our team of volunteer doctors, nurses, physiotherapists and other volunteers we take the children (without parents) on a 'holiday of a lifetime'. They meet others in a similar situation, develop lifelong friendships and, for once, are not the "odd one out". This grant of £10,000 would fund tickets for all 192 children for a whole day in Universal Studios; which is the favourite park consistently when we survey the children after the trip. The cost of each child ticket on our last trip (just for Universal Studios) was £52 x 192 = £9984. This year, we are expecting that cost to rise slightly. |

For this project, we will plan and deliver four Multi-Sensory Festivals (two days each) in accessible and inspiring learning settings in areas where there is a strong need for more multi-sensory activities for children and young people with profound and severe learning disabilities through our links with families, local schools and groups. The number of beneficiaries will be at least 120 children and young people with learning disabilities as well as 100 parents/carers and SEN teachers. Through this project, Soundabout aims to unlock the potential of Disabled children and young people by helping them to develop their sensory engagement and ability to communicate and interact with the world around them through music and sound. Our experience shows that enabling people with disabilities to enjoy communicating through patterns of sound and silence motivates them to develop imaginative thinking and core learning, listening, and communication skills. There will also be long-term sustainable benefits as teachers and parents/carers will learn Soundabout techniques to help their Disabled children continue to enjoy music making at home and school. |

Outputs will be increased using a social enterprise model that benefits the Farm?s social impact project participants; providing new opportunities to connect with nature, overcome mental health challenges and find meaningful work experience opportunities, whilst promoting biodiversity and nature recovery. With funding, our Director and Communications Lead will establish the systems and processes needed to increase visitor donations and contributions towards unrestricted income and enhance delivery of our charitable aims. Areas for development over the next 12-months include: increasing on-site donations; launching a new farm shop; growing more food and developing products that can be sold on site and at farmer?s markets; establishing the new café ensuring it is profitable in its first year; establishing our Roots to Work programme, providing skills, training and work experience opportunities to help people back to work; launching a new alternative provision programme for young people that don?t fit into mainstream education; re-launching our membership; going live with a new website and embedding new branding across the site; and launching a public fundraising crowdfunder campaign.

With this funding, we will engage beneficiaries, from urban deprived areas, in the following activities: - Conduct site assessments and surveys - Plant new fruit and nut trees including older and rarer varieties, to improve biodiversity, extend orchard space and diversify tree cover - Prune existing trees through careful restorative work - Create habitats to encourage orchard biodiversity e.g. bird and bat boxes, bug hotels, dead wood piles, dry stone walls, hedgerows, small ponds, sedum roof structures, spring bulbs and wildflower meadows - Develop biodiversity-focused orchard management plans - Provide tree care training to orchard volunteers - Deliver community activities that bring volunteers and wider communities together, and cherish cultural traditions and nature awareness, such as harvests, apple days and wassails - Identify unknown fruit varieties using fruit identification experts (and DNA testing if need be) - Put in place tree tags for fruit varieties, and signage to educate orchard visitors about habitat conservation. |
