Our Values

 

We seek to provide a caring environment which promotes independence and social inclusion, leading to a tangible improvement in the quality of life for people living with younger onset dementia.

You donation can really make a difference to our work, we are the only provider of help and support of any kind for this section of the community in the county of Essex.

Assisted Living Project

 

Our Assisted Living Project is a community based project and we are very keen to encourage local people to be involved. One very direct way to do this, is to 'buy a brick'.

Bricks can be purchased for £10.00 and can be bought in the name of a loved one or a memento of a very special memory shared with someone. Certificates are issued and all purchases will be recognised when the Building Project is complete.

Groups of people including families, friends, colleagues and local business may wish to discuss purchasing a whole wall and having this dedicated or sponsored.

All income from the Peaceful Place Charity Shop helps to fund our work so you really can make a difference.

You are welcome to donate goods directly to our shops during opening hours. Peaceful Place converts your gifts into cash to fund our hard work.

Give a Regular Gift

 

Peaceful Place is a registered charity and relies strongly on the generosity and support of the community.  Regular gifts can play an essential part in allowing us to work more effectively.  Knowing that we have a regular amount of money coming in each month allows us to budget and plan.  Your regular gift can contribute to this and really make a difference.

How Your Company Can Help

 

We are in the early stages of developing our corporate fundraising programme.  We will be looking at working in partnership with local companies, especially where there is a link to past and present staff and their families living with dementia. 

We intend to develop this programme and should be pleased to hear from any local company who may be interested in becoming involved  through donating cash, staff time, sponsorship, participating in events etc.  Please contact the Fundraising Office - link to Fundraising Office.

We recently organised a Pamper Evening when local Beauticians and Therapists donated their time free of charge in return for a donation to Peaceful Place.  This was a great success in return for three hours of their time - so it can be something relatively small that makes a huge difference.

Gift Aid

 

If you are a UK taxpayer Peaceful Place can claim extra money from the Taxman without costing you a penny!

In order for us to claim this money you will need to complete a Gift Aid Declaration Form.  Once you have signed this form and returned it to us we can claim an extra 28% on top of your donation.

This means if you donate £10.00 to us, the Taxman adds £2.80 making your donation total £12.80.
