Charities

The Three Ells Trust
The Three Ells Trust was formed in 2000 and aims to make a difference to the lives of children with cancer and other life threatening or life limiting conditions and their families. We fund research into primary bone cancers and also assist hospitals to purchase medical and recreational equipment. Our current project is to fully fund a Paediatric Palliative Care Nurse for the local district attached to Kingfisher Ward, Dorchester Hospital to visit children in their own homes
Educare Fund
Educare Fund supports poor familes in Lesotho (southern Africa) to keep bright girls in school to the end of secondary education. There is some funding for primary and higher education, but many families are faced with the dilemma of choosing which children to put though secondary education. While there is a limited amount of government funding for this level of education, it is not currently available to all. When families have to make a choice because they cannot afford to educate all their children, it is often the girls who end up leaving school. This means that they have little chance of attaining higher education and fully realising their potential. The education of Lesotho's young women is especially important in the current climate of high local incidence of HIV AIDS because women bear most of the burden of care within families. Additionally, women are also the mainstay of child-rearing, laying the foundation for future generations. It is therefore, very important to ensure that they are well equipped for these roles. Educare Fund pays a proportion of the annual school fees for each girls. This way we work in partneship with the families, so that they retain a stake in the education of their children. The proportion of the fees provided by Educare Fund depends on the funds available, therefore the more money we raise, the more we can pass on to the sponsored girls. As a small charity, Educare Fund has relatively low outgoings so that most of the money raised is used to support the girls. Most of the work of administering the charity is done by volunteers.

Thanks for visiting our charity webpage,

The staff at Creo Pharma have pledged to raise money this year by supporting a young boy called Sam, with a rare condition called Neuroblastoma who desparately needs our help.  Also once again, we will be trying to raise money for Educarefund, a very worthy charity close to our hearts.

Sam has a rare condition called Neuroblastoma, a progressive cancer that affects the nerve cells. He has already had a tumour removed from his adrenal gland, chemotherapy, stem cell replacement, high dose chemo and Mibg treatment. Unfortunately this is as far as the NHS can go and the cancer has spread to his blood and bones. His last chance is to travel to Germany and privately pay for GD2 antibody therapy which costs £1,000 per day and will require 70 days for the full course. The Three Ells fund is a local charity to Sam and his family and will be working with them to raise as much as possible for his treatment. We will be donating through them. For more information on Neuroblastoma:

Educare supports poor families in Lesotho, South Africa with the education of young girls, when normally they would finish education as young as 12, unless financial support is provided.  Educare works in partnership with the families so that they have a continuing stake in their child's education...and ultimately help to give them a better chance in life and perhaps make a difference in their community with a brighter future.
