Charities
Rescare supports families of people with learning disabilities. Founded in 1984, Rescare campaigns on issues affecting learning disabled people and their families - choice in education, choice in residence, better healthcare, and many other issues. Rescare has a helpline for families of learning disabled people, who face many challenges, no matter the age of their learning disabled family member, or whether they live at home or in another residence. We work across the UK, and are always happy to welcome new members and volunteers.
Restored Hope Zambia UK (RHZ UK) is a Scottish registered charity which tackles abuse in the church in Zambia by supporting those who have suffered sexual abuse, raising awareness, equipping churches and improving inadequate systems of safeguarding and justice. This is done in partnership with Restored Hope Zambia (RHZ), a registered Christian NGO in Zambia. RHZ UK’s main activities are: Fundraising, raising awareness of abuse and providing training and resources to facilitate RHZ’s work. Our vision is to restore hope to church abuse survivors and create an environment in Zambian churches where vulnerable women and children are safe and can flourish.
People with experience of mental illness, and those who care for them, are at the heart of everything we do. They shape our expert advice, information and training and 90 services. They also drive our campaigning and help to run over 140 local support groups. Supporting all this life-changing work are our incredible supporters, volunteers and staff members.
