Vees Place

The charities mission is to improve the health and general well-being of our community, through health initiatives, formal and informal educational sessions, advocacy, advice and guidance sessions, peer to peer support, recreational activities etc, we aim to improve the quality of life and reduce social and economic constraints in our society. After covid and major spends on the old church building we operate from our finances were stretched to the limit and we considered closure. Due to the demand for activities and services we decided to continue as best we could. We are in the process of redecorating rooms to provide therapies, a sensory room, a dementia group and occupational therapy to address requests from numerous community residents and health groups. As our website is about the history of the charity we need an urgent update, a volunteer from John Moores University has offered to do this for us. We do not have a current newsletter but we do have an infographic about our achievement over a five year period as example of the good work carried out and the impact. We have won numerous prestigious awards to include "The Points of Light" awards from the then Prime Minister Theresa May. The ITV Good Morning Britain Team awarded the manager/founder a 'Special Recognition Award' which appeared on screen Christmas 2020. Our charity has worked with the Princes Trust and the Groundwork Trust, both excellent for the progress of young people. There is a video on YOU TUBE of our past projects, we will be continuing a lot of similar projects in the future; I am hoping to attach some files later if possible, files such as the Annual Report and the Infographic. Since deciding to remain open we have been fortunate to work in partnership with a number of groups such as MerseyCare NHS, Merseyside Youth Association, Knowsley Disability Concern, Social Prescribing via GP's, Police, Veterans, Schools and more. The charity is volunteer led. Our request is for funding to gain a project manager who will over-see all projects and will supervise a number of project facilitators.

Special Effect

SpecialEffect's mission is to enable people of all ages with even the most severe physical challenges to enjoy gaming and other creative, communication and leisure activities through access to innovative assistive technology. Our strategy is to optimise the benefits of the experience and expertise we gain from our intensive in-person assessment and support process, to make as powerful global impact as possible. We do this by operating on three levels: Tier 1 - To provide rapid-response, multi-professional assessments, and life-long specialist support to people of all ages with severe physical challenges, including young people with an immunodeficiency, completely free of charge. Each individual is provided with a customised assistive control set-up enabling them to access leisure technology such as video games, utilising whatever hardware and software best matches their needs; or a telepresence robot where that is the most appropriate solution. Tier 2 - To share what we learn through carrying out our Tier 1 work with developers, professionals and disabled people, by providing freely available video case studies and training resources online, as well as illustrating best practice by creating our own free-to-play accessible games and software. Tier 3 - To collaborate with hardware and software developers to help make video games and other digital entertainment software more accessible to people with severe physical challenges 'at source'.
