Waterskiing family Day!!⛷️🌊 What a fantastic day we had! The weather might not have been on our side today but that didn’t stop the foundation families from getting stuck in and making the best of a rainy day! ☔️ A well done to all the children who took part in the water activities today, you all smashed it and truly lived up to the saying “see the ability not the disability” and we love it 💙 A huge thank you to Paul Flay who sponsors this event every year for the foundation. We greatly appreciate your constant support! And also another massive thank you to Mark Wilson at 360 Mortgages who also hosts and cooks the BBQ every year for this event, you smash it every time!🍔🌭 @access_adventures as always you were amazing and we couldn’t do an event like this without your highly trained staff who keep our foundation children safe whilst having so much fun!! 💙 Roll on 2025! #theknightsfoundation #werisebyliftingothers #seetheabilitynotthedisability #waterskiing #waterfun #summerholidays #rainyday

We work towards a world in which pets are family and families do not have to choose between remaining housed and remaining with their pets. Ross Barker and Sara Maria Muriello from our Pet-Inclusive Housing Initiative, joined a powerful webinar with Don't Forget the Pets, supported by RedRover and Greater Good Charities, called "Mind the Housing Gap." Ross and Sara shared valuable knowledge, resources, and connected with fellow pet advocates working towards solutions for keeping people and pets together in housing. Learn more about this critical issue and how you can help. Watch the webinar replay: https://lnkd.in/eBmSCfDU

🌞 As we bid goodbye to July, let's welcome August with open arms and organized homes! Whether you're prepping for back-to-school or just eager to embrace the fall, an organized home can make the transition smoother. So, we've cooked up some fun and actionable tips to help you declutter, clean, and organize: 1️⃣ Car Cleanout: Start with a car decluttering session because a tidy car equals a happy commute! 2️⃣ Sports Calendar: With fall sports around the corner, create a family sports calendar to keep track of all the games and practices. 3️⃣ Shed Organization: Get your shed fall-ready by organizing your tools and garden equipment. 4️⃣ Basement Bonanza: Basements often become a catch-all for clutter. Take some time this month to sort, donate, or toss items you no longer need. Remember, it's not about perfection, it's about progress. Start small and celebrate each victory along the way. Got questions or need more tips? Drop us a DM or leave a comment below. We're here to help! #AugustOrganizationChallenge #HomeOrganization #BackToSchool #FallReady #DeclutterAndDestress

Issue 6, Brakpan's Voice. In the last couple of weeks, I have been part of several projects. Through it all, two things were highlighted. Team spirit and cooperation. We can have all the numbers we want, but if we do not work together, then numbers are irrelevant. Numbers can split, it can divide and even be subtracted, and the project gets lost in hurt and confusion. If we do not act like one loaf of bread, we can not defeat the enemy. Remember Gideon and his 300 men? They acted as one loaf of bread that destroyed the Midianite camp.

WellChild Project Number 10 sponsored by Speedy. Birmingham, on 12th & 13th March 2024: The harder the effort, the greater the reward! It rained and rained on day 1 and the ground became a mud bath which slowed us down considerably. The volunteers, all made up of senior management from Speedy, worked tirelessly and without complaint on both days to get this project finished for Lewis and his family. Lewis is 7 and has several conditions including Cerebral Palsy and Global Developmental Delay and, as you can see from the 'before' photos, the family couldn't even use their garden before Speedy transformed the lower half, giving Lewis and his sisters a safe, flat and soft area to play and have fun in! Without the financial support & volunteers from companies like Speedy then I don't think we could deliver this programme to the children and families who desperately need help! THANK YOU! Please, please, please share this post as children like Lewis all across the UK desperately need access to outdoor areas at their homes which currently they can't get to. We'd love to have the chance to pitch to any companies out there that want amazing team building days combined with community projects! Please get in touch! #corporatesocialresponsibility #community #charitysupport #volunteering #teambuilding #teamdevelopment We are also looking for companies nationwide that can help us with the supply of artificial grass, timber and other building materials, screws and fixings, PPE, tools, sensory items, outdoor solar lighting, skips and site toilets, diesel costs, and hotel and subsistence costs... Please get in touch... Even if we can get a 10% discount on some of this, you'd be surprised how much of a difference your help will make! #sponsorship #fundingopportunities Thanks for reading😁

Here's a little bit of a different #SafetyTopic -- Water Safety. It's pool, lake, and beach season, and taking a swim is a great way to cool off. But water needs to be respected! This summer, take steps to make sure your loved ones -- especially kids -- are safe in and around the water. In my years with the Y, some of the key things we talked about when it comes to water safety are: 🙋♂️Make sure kids know they need to ask permission before getting in the water. Make it a habit. The child gets permission, and an adult is aware! 👀 While all adults should be paying attention, consider creating shifts with designated "Water Watchers." His or her job is to watch the summer fun like a hawk with no distractions. 📵 Put your phone down! Especially the Water Watcher. 💦 Don't just watch: Get in! Model safe behavior in and around water! 🏊♀️ And finally, the best way to keep kids safe around water is to enroll in swim lessons. The Y (YMCA) invented swim lessons, and there are Ys in communities across the country. Many (Most? All?) provide support for families to participate in programs like swim lessons, even if they are struggling financially. And if you're an adult who can't swim, The Y offers adult swim lessons as well! Will you commit to being a Water Watcher this summer? #watersafety #summertime
Today was SPLASH Day and we are so grateful to our volunteers and sponsors who helped us impact hundreds of Greenville kids today. Especially Kiwanis International who provided vouchers for YMCA swim lessons for underserved communities. For SPLASH Day, we offered free water safety lessons at Prisma Health Family YMCA, Caine Halter Family YMCA, Eastside Family YMCA, and The Sullivan Apartments. Participants learned how to save themselves and others if they or a friend becomes distressed in the water. For more information about SPLASH Day and its mission, visit https://lnkd.in/exWbJw8r #watersafetysc
