Anisha McTaggart is delighted to announce her daughter's forthcoming event, Mia’s Birthday Wish:Mia is very lucky, she is able to celebrate her birthday with you all, and we feel grateful that she has such wonderful friends at school. School is where life begins for our kids, not only all the social aspects but having the privilege of free education. Mia has a great fondness of school and the wonderful things she gets to do there.With that in mind, it is important to us that all children have the right to this; unfortunately, that is not the case across the globe. Millions of children do not have access to shelter, healthcare or education, so, how can they have dreams? As a parent, there are causes close to our hearts, and one of them is giving children the right to be educated. We spoke to Mia and she said “mummy why can’t all children go to school if they want to like me, can we build them schools”.For this reason ..... instead of a gift, Mia would prefer if you make a small donation to selected charity One Kind Act, who work with causes around the world that help provide children with the basic right to education. With your help, we can build a better world for these children.Thank you  About One Kind ActOne Kind Act Changes Communities and lives of others globally who suffer as a result of Poverty of Health, Nutrition and Education and may have Fallen Through The Net of the larger charities.

One Kind Act announce their Afghan Refugees in UK Appeal:  After more than twenty years of conflict and attempts at nation building, the US and allied forces are in the end game of withdrawing from Afghanistan. The speedy retreat has resulted in regime change and the unintended consequences of continued suffering for civilians. Fear and desperation is seen in the media and like on so many occasions around the world, it is women, children and the ordinary citizens who bear the brunt.United Kingdom is trying to take in as many Afghan refugees as possible, as they have always done in the past from other conflict areas. Those arriving will most likely be young and vulnerable. They may have limited resources or family connections to support them. Food, shelter and clothing will be the basic immediate needs. One Kind Act will extend its hand of friendship to those in most need, working with our credible charity partners. Any of our supporters who wish to help us to help these unfortunate people, please donate to OKA as your act of kindness.About One Kind ActOne Kind Act Changes Communities and lives of others globally who suffer as a result of Poverty of Health, Nutrition and Education and may have Fallen Through The Net of the larger charities.

One Kind Act are proud present another new runner, Elliott Lyons, for our forthcoming event – LONDON LANDMARKS HALF MARATHON (LLHM 2021) - to be held on Sunday 1 August 2021. He will also be running in THE ROYAL PARKS HALF MARATHON being held in October 2021.  The LLHM usually celebrates London’s grand iconic landmarks, its quirky and hidden history and gems. However, following the global Covid-19 pandemic, LLHM 2021 will be re-themed to celebrate the grand, quirky and hidden landmark moments of 2020, shining a light on how we have come together as a nation during this unprecedented time. One Kind Act are grateful to Elliott to have signed up to these two Marathon events to raise funds which can be used to help the destitute here in the UK and all around the world.Here is what Elliott Lyons has to say..........'It’s been a crazy 15 months for everyone, and I consider myself one of the lucky ones! I am still in employment, I am fortunate not to have suffered from COVID issues, my family are happy and healthy. But this isn’t the case for many others both here in the UK and overseas. So I wanted to pay it forward and support where I can. Therefore, I am running two half marathons (London Landmarks and Royal Parks) between now and the end of the year to raise money for One Kind Act. A fantastic charity that raises money to support those smaller charitable organisations that are often overlooked.One Kind Act became even closer to my heart when I lost my oldest and best friend to COVID related illness earlier this year. Aleem was an avid supporter and contributor to One Kind Act and, more than anything, I wanted to do these half marathons in his memory and support the charity that was so close to his heart.So I am reaching out to everyone to support by sponsoring me and helping me raise a significant amount that can support others who are less fortunate but also in memory of my friend, Aleem.Please support me by clicking the link below and donating what you can - every penny counts, and I can assure you your money will be put to good use.Thank you!'This charity run is a closed road, central London run and is the only half marathon to go through both the City of London and City of Westminster. Well-thought out, flexible and responsive measures will be in place to ensure that LLHM 2021 will be a Covid-secure event, where the safety of the LLHM community comes first. About One Kind ActOne Kind Act Changes Communities and lives of others globally who suffer as a result of Poverty of Health, Nutrition and Education and may have Fallen Through The Net of the larger charities.
