Concordia (Youth Service Volunteers) Ltd

concordia (youth service volunteers) ltd

Concordia is a charity based in Brighton. Our mission is to support people to develop skills and gain experiences so that they can thrive. We run programmes that change lives and nurture global citizens who care about each other, their local communities and the world. We are part of a global community – we work with partners and people from all over the world. All our projects are impactful - whether they are just up the road from us or on the other side of the world. We do this by working with local communities delivering programmes that respond to local needs. Concordia was founded in 1943 to recruit volunteer labour to encourage peace and reconciliation in the aftermath of the Second World War. Since then, Concordia has supported around three-quarters of a million people to undertake incredible programmes that support local communities all over the world. Our work as a charity supplies five core services: CYA (Concordia Youth Action), International Volunteering, NCS (National Citizens Service), Seasonal Workers Programme and our Wellbeing Programme. Although all our programmes vary, they are all motivated by our desire to make the world a better place. CYA (Concordia Youth Action) Concordia works to improve local communities across Sussex. The young people we work with locally are passionate about making positive change and we help them do so. Launched in 2020, Concordia Youth Action (CYA) is a programme of blended volunteering (on and offline sessions and social action) that enables young people in the UK to engage with their local community through regular volunteering and skills sessions. As an official partner of the National Skills Builder Programme, our CYA programmes improve participant’s transferable skills, supports engagement and improvement of the local community, and develops citizenship.

The Creative Writing Programme

the creative writing programme

Brighton

The Creative Writing Programme is one of the leading centres for creative writing in the UK. After moving out of the University of Sussex it has established a reputation for excellence in Brighton and the South East. Our approach to teaching creative writing At a time when the cost of higher education has made university study an expensive luxury, our programmes offer a practical course of study, taught at university level, at an affordable price. Our innovative approach to teaching focuses on individual creativity and on teaching writing skills within the context of the creative process. Through a practical course of study designed to teach you how to build and structure narrative, our team of experienced writing tutors will help you develop your creative potential. Blended creative writing courses Work patterns and learning patterns are changing. To accommodate this new reality, as well as our in-person courses we have developed a new blended learning structure for our two-year programme. Our blended courses, aimed at local writers in the South East, are a mix of online and in person teaching, with classes taught from the Phoenix Art Space, or The Kemptown Bookshop in Brighton in early autumn and summer and online during the winter. You’ll spend the first five weeks of the Autumn Term meeting up in person, then switch to online learning as Winter sets in. We’ll stick with online classes until clocks go forward in March, then meet up again in person for the end of the Spring Term and the whole of the Summer Term. This way we make the most of what online learning has to offer, get to know each other, work together as a group, avoid travel over the winter months, stay safe and reduce our carbon footprint. We think that’s a positive.

Kick A Habit™

Midhurst, West Sussex

Kick A Habit™ Approach The approach created by Caroline Anderson NGH, MSc Psychology, BSc Clinical Hypnotherapy, Dip. Personnel Management,  when working with many clients as a therapist in Harley Street in London,  is simple and effective. It is based on the premise that your habitual way of responding to your world in some area or multiple parts of your life isn't working for you and that if you want to experience something better, changing your habitual responses works.  It is formed around the word Habit; H    Honesty A    Actions and Accountability B    Beliefs and Behaviours I     Identity and Imagination T    Trust and Time Are you ready to feel better? Do you want to drop a lifestyle habit that is impacting you negatively? Do you manage stress with ineffectual yet habitual coping strategies that you want to upgrade thoroughly, and efficiently?  Do you experience heightened persistent anxiety or use food or alcohol to self-medicate? Would you like the support and guidance of a skilled facilitator of habit change to help you take action and halt your self-destruction now?  Courses, Workshops, Quests, Personal Training, Therapy  If you are sure that you are ready to feel better, then I would love to work with you to achieve that. The online courses are always accessible to you on demand and are designed to be both effective and efficient. They are courses of action that include hypnosis designed to lead you through the process of improving your old responses to your world with the aim of achieving your desired outcome. We also offer workshops, masterclasses and one-to-one training and therapy. May You Be Happy, Caroline Anderson CMA

Manhood Peninsula Community Interest Company

manhood peninsula community interest company

London

We were formed to carry on activities which benefit the community and, in particular, further the social, health, economic and environmental interests of the residents of the Manhood Peninsula in West Sussex by: - Acquiring and managing land and other assets; Providing support to disadvantaged groups to enable them to overcome the obstacles they face; Supporting, facilitating and delivering projects and activities; Establishing arrangements to ensure our profits are used for their benefit. Feel free to check our company registration. When we registered, Companies House asked us to identify our main areas of business activity: - 68209 - Other letting and operating of own or leased real estate; 82990 - Other business support service activities not elsewhere classified; 85600 - Educational support services; 90040 - Operation of arts facilities Perhaps the best way to understand what we do, is to think of us as a charitable 'gap-plugger.' We provide small groups with the individualised support, assistance and / or expertise they need but do not have amongst their volunteers and cannot afford to 'buy in.' An example of this is acting as a banker by holding monies in trust and paying suppliers direct on the group's behalf when asked to do so. This simplifies the administrative burden greatly for groups and gives them more time to focus on what they set out to do. We also provide Governance advice so groups can get less bogged down in red tape. Digital services are also an area we help with, providing advice on how groups can promote themselves, and help them do so if they wish. Some of the groups we work with feature on this site. You will see some groups are publicised on this website - if that might be of help to you get in touch. We operate in a supportive way by only helping if (and when) asked. The groups we help effectively sub-contract us in., which allows them to stay in control, use or not use us as they see fit and most importantly, maintain their independence. Click here to email us

Lisa Stone Careers And Coaching

London

I provide coaching and careers guidance. I work as a freelance consultant, based in Beckenham (in the London borough of Bromley). Here you can read more about me and how I work. For many years I worked for Kent, Surrey and Sussex Deanery, which in 2013 merged and became part of Health Education England. My work was focused on careers, training and education for the NHS. I became a careers adviser in 2009, gaining a PG Dip in Careers Education at the University of Warwick. During this period, I mainly worked with doctors, either on a 1:1 basis or in group sessions. I helped them choose their medical specialities, as well as supporting them through a competitive interview process. Since the summer of 2017 I have worked as a freelance coach and careers consultant. I provide business to business careers consultancy and also work with private clients. My private coaching clients are mainly adults, from college students to people that want to undergo a career change. I help with career choice, coaching and careers guidance to improve any aspect of work or work/life balance. I also work with people who need help and advice to set up their own businesses. How I work My philosophy is to work with clients using ‘unconditional positive regard’ as the foundation stone of my practice. Carl Rogers, a humanistic psychologist in the 1950s, first developed this as a concept. This means I work from a place of having utmost respect for my client. I work in a holistic way, which helps the client find their own learning and life and helps people who want to change. I may explore with the client: questions relating to life purpose, the quality of relationships (work and home), feelings, career and health. BPS qualified in the use of psychometric assessments, I am trained in the Type Dynamics Indicator. I am also on on the Careers Development Institute registered list of career development professionals.
