Wanted:Charity fundraiser for Your local adventure playground


Recommended Posts

Hello there it's the staff here at Dog Kennel Hill Adventure Playground.


We are looking for someone who can work with us and be our fundraiser as we are really in need of a new building and the funds that will enable us to do this. We do have a budget in order to employ you.

For more information please email Patrick on [email protected]


Here's a little bit more about us:


The Dog Kennel Hill Adventure Playground has been established since the early 1970's and is a free open access adventure playground for children and young people between the ages of 8-16


For over 40 years dkhap has given children and young people the opportunity to play freely and take risk in a safe and stimulating environment with qualified staff on hand to supervise.


The playground is based in East Dulwich South London and is run independently by a management committee made up of local people.


The playground receives its core funding from Southwark Council (Children's Services) and also relies financially on its own fundraising events, applying for grants and donations.


We believe that all children have the right to play irrespective of their race, culture, ability or gender and through the many facets of play, all children can achieve there full potential.


Please check us out on dkhap.org.uk


Thanks so much

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
