[email protected] Group – Create the Bird Character and Design and illustrations for NHS London Olympic Campaign 2012
Celebrate and Protect uses a child’s birthday card as a simple evidence-based engagement tool between GP practice and parent as a call to action for childhood immunisation to improve uptake. The birthday card initiative has been used on a small scale in London but never at scale across more than one borough. Celebrate and Protect aims to roll out the approach across the six Olympic host boroughs and create an evidence base for both large scale implementation of the approach and scalability of good practice across multiple health and social care geographies.
The purpose of the project:• Increase childhood
immunisation uptake, especially MMR1 and MMR2
• Increase attendance for 6 to 8wk check in primary care
• Provide an independent evaluation of the birthday card methodology at a population scale
• Provide key learning for scaling of best practice interventions across boundaries in London
The project was proposed as a partnership intervention with Sanofi Pasteur MSD, with external academic evaluation with a view to peer review publications of the findings.

Homelessness is a prevalent problem, particularly with the economic downturn. This is true, even in the borough of Kingston which is seen to be affluent. Single people out of work or on low income, if they are ineligible for help from the council, find it extremely difficult to obtain affordable housing.
This project provides housing and welfare benefit advice, offers a hostel placement service and endeavours to find the client a space in a night shelter or hostel.

Oxygen works at the heart of Kingston’s most challenging and deprived communities – Cambridge Estate and Kingsnympton – working to support young people and give them hope for the future. Many live in difficult circumstances and often go from one crisis to another.

There are several pockets of deprivation and debt levels above the national average in Kingston upon Thames.
Hidden hunger is an issue where there is low income and no financial safety net or savings. An unexpected bill or reduction in income can push a family into crisis, unable to buy basic food.
This project works in partnership with front line agencies and care providers. They offer help, advice and 3-4 days supply of food.

1 in 4 women experience at least one incident of domestic violence during their lifetime. Women who flee often leave everything behind including family, friends, possessions, jobs and security. If they cannot find space in a refuge they face a stark choice between homelessness and destitution, or remaining with an abusive partner.
This project supports 3 refuges in Kingston, providing women and children with a safe place to live during this stressful time.

Around 6 million people cannot access mainstream credit, often due to having no credit history, or because of their work status. Many have little choice but to pay extortionate interest from loan sharks, leading to inescapable spirals of debt.
This project provides Kingston with a Credit Union – Kingston Savers work in partnership with SurreySaves. They provide a safe home for people’s savings, and offer flexible, affordable sources of credit with no hidden charges or penalties for early repayment.

The Love Kingston fundraising campaign is part of Kingston Voluntary Action’s (KVA’s) Transforming Kingston’s Infrastructure project, funded by the Big Fund on behalf of the Office for Civil Society. KVA is working in partnership with The London Community Foundation on delivering this campaign. All donations will be made to the Love Kingston campaign at The London Community Foundation.
Our vision is of a strong and generous community – where residents, businesses, community groups and government act collectively to create a fair and good society for all who live or work in the borough. It is easy to forget about the thousands of residents left on the margins.
Wealth and poverty live side by side, with middle class terraces, green spaces and trendy high streets blending into run-down estates and empty playgrounds.
Love Kingston is an exciting new charitable venture responding over time to the changing needs of local people.
All donations made to Love Kingston will be shared equally between
the Kingston Legacy Fund and the five
local projects

Across the borough, many inspiring organisations run by dedicated individuals achieve extraordinary things with very limited resources.
For many of these organisations, the future depends on securing small but vital amounts of funding to reach individuals and communities in need. As the effects of the recession and budget cuts take hold, funding is getting tighter while the need for these services is greater than ever.
Love Kingston is supporting five local projects committed to ‘pathways out of poverty’.
All charitable groups funded by The London Community Foundation have been assessed and completed a due diligence process.

Bringing schools and parents together
equals academic and social success for
children which is why our successful parenting
seminars are endorsed by schools and
nurseries. Our seminars have been developed
in conjunction with teachers experienced
in early years learning, and draw on child
behaviour and developmental research.
what we do
We deliver a range of parenting tools to parents
within the familiar environment of the school
community. With the strategies learned during
the seminars, parents help children grow in
confidence and resilience, try new things,
persevere, and do well both academically and
socially. Parents learn how to support children
in academic, artistic and sporting endeavours
without pressurising them.
We also offer seminars for school and nursery
teachers. Teachers are dedicated, warm and
empathetic professionals. However, it can be
tiring stimulating a class, caring for children
and managing behaviour at the same time as
children absorb the learning tasks required
of them and learn to interact with others.
Teachers often find disciplining children
difficult. We deliver techniques that bring out
the best in children while ensuring discipline is
positive and effective.

Christine and Steve, parents
of a son and daughter
My husband and I
highly recommend the 10 week
parenting course.
The information and skills learnt were both
practical and useful and the changes we made
to our own behaviour remain with us to this day.
Money and time well spent - 20 hours
is a small price to pay for a lifetime of positive
parenting, bringing out the best
in your children.
Leo, father of two girls
When we first
signed-up for the course I was
curious but also concerned about giving
up what felt like so much of my time. In the
event it wasn’t a huge imposition on my time
and it was really worthwhile. We had specific
issues to tackle and within weeks we found
that things were turning round. After the
course I am pretty confident that I am a
better parent and that my kids are
happier too.
Your parenting tips still
steer our family ship. I don’t always
remember to respond the way I’d like
on reflection but It’s like finding a £10 pound
note at the bottom of your handbag... sometimes
finding just the right words to smooth through family
life. When my children were quite small I had a parent
practice top 10 tips printed out on the inside of our
pantry cupboard. I could then whip out some skills
with the cereal and be sure of a good day. I was
always amazed by the results! Happy
calm children. Bliss!
