The Girls Home


In the Hogar de Ninas in Granada, Nicaragua, 30 girls are growing up in a safe and caring environment..
This is a home for girls who have been mistreated, abused or their carers struggle to provide for them as they themselves may have had a similar upbringing. It is run by an order of nuns called Madre Albertina. 
Justin Long visited The Girls Home and then returned the next year to introduce Amanda Seyfried .  This is their video of The Girls Home.

Following on from the previous fundraiser in 2013, Justin returns to Granada with Amanda, introducing her to the girl's of the Hogar De Niñas Madre Albertina, The Girls Home. They also visit the home of Kimberly and Francesca in one of the poorest barrio's in Granada to find out why they are staying at the hogar.

Bottlenose dolphins windfarm threat.

Drew Sutton , Nice Director, has been back out on the Scottish waters with  Philip Hoare  as they addressed the issue of the newly approved windfarm plans in the Moray Firth. Photo by Drew Sutton These waters are home to an array of wildlife, including the "UK's only resident population of bottlenose dolphins" and these 227 proposed turbines will disrupt their way of life since they depend on sonar. Have a read of Philip's article and if you can, pop along to Aquatopia: The imaginary of the ocean deep which opened this weekend at the Nottingham Contemporary and will continue at Tate St Ives in October.   http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/jul/17/sea-invisible-trash-heap-aquatopia Let us know what you think or even better, get involved with the WDC and exhibitions such as Aquatopia! http://www.nottinghamcontemporary.org/art/aquatopia

Nana’s Manners, Confident Kids- Kickstart starts 21st June

Nana’s Manners believe in giving children the tools they need to learn to do the basics well. We want to empower kids to become confident and independent in the world around them. Nana’s Manners is the inspiration of Kathryn, a mum of two who taught in Primary Schools for ten years. It was whilst teaching in a Reception class that she realised the widespread difficultly 4-5 year olds had in using a knife and fork effectively and independently. As the cutlery kids need to help them learn this life skill didn’t exist, Kathryn decided she was going to design it herself. Nana’s Manners is launching their patented, ergonomically designed cutlery on Kickstarter on the 21st June.  They need to reach their target amount in pledges in 30 days to fund their first production run and bring Nana’s Manners to life. Please visit their website to find out more and support them in getting their cutlery out and into little hands. http://www.nanasmanners.com
