Leicester Animal Aid is a rescue and rehoming centre for cats and dogs. Every year, we care for more than 400 dogs and cats who are lost, abandoned, neglected, unwanted or relinquished because their owners can no longer look after them.

Environment
Protecting and enhancing the wildlife and wild places of Leicestershire and Rutland, we believe Leicestershire and Rutland should be rich in wildlife for the benefit of everyone - with more wildlife, more wild places and more people having a strong connection to nature. For over 65 years we have been saving wildlife and wild places, increasing people’s awareness and understanding of the natural world, and deepening people’s relationship with it.
Lenderhand is a charity that has been set up to provide families and individuals in the county of Essex with assistance by paying for goods or services that they could not otherwise afford, providing a helping hand through the challenging periods of their lives.
We appreciate that times can become tough due to difficult circumstances, and something small could make the biggest difference to your everyday life. If you are struggling financially, for instance finding the money to provide new clothes for your kids when you are struggling to put food on the table is hard, which is where we can help.
At Lenderhand we pay for goods or services up to the value of £1,000, giving you the helping hand you need to get you back on your feet.

Disabled
One in four people in the UK are disabled. For more than 75 years, we have worked directly with disabled people to give them the freedom to live their lives the way they choose, with the opportunity to fully take part in society. Today, our staff provide social care services that support disabled people across the UK to have greater levels of independence. Some of the people we support have very complex needs, requiring specialist nursing. In addition to offering high-quality care and support, we lead campaigns to influence government to implement legislation that positively benefits the lives of disabled people.
The Charity works with vulnerable children from the streets and shanty-towns of the city of Medellín, Colombia. It seeks to save them from the influence of the criminal gangs and from drug addiction and prostitution, and to offer them the chance of 'life in all its fulness'.
