Story
Each year DCCT raise vital funds which are invested into local programmes, addressing key issues in the community such as health and wellbeing, personal attainment, and community engagement. We have an inclusive, participant centred approach to our work and support people of all ages, gender, ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds.
DCCT provide life-changing opportunities for the young through to the elderly, aiming to give them an opportunity to achieve their goals, develop, and become active and engaged members of the community.
£50 could fund a child, whose family may be suffering financial hardship, through a week of holiday coaching, ensuring they remain active and healthy whilst out of school.
£150 could purchase an electronic table that can be used to bridge the digital divide. Keeping an isolated member of the community connected or enabling a household to have an additional device for schoolwork.
£200 could provide one of our learners with the necessary kit needed to fulfil their qualification.
£300 could fund a wellbeing event which tackles inequalities in lower socio-economic and BME communities that are particularly pertinent to the development of certain cancers.
£500 could support the running costs of our Sensory Room at Pride Park, providing a safe and relaxing space for children and eliminating any segregation from who can and who cannot enjoy a game of football.
£1000 could pay for a community Christmas meal for 100 participants from our most vulnerable programmes such as Active Choices. Participants who would not normally celebrate Christmas the way you usually would.
£2000 could pay for a volunteer, to experience our Rams in KLenya trip. A lifechanging opportunity for themselves and an opportunity to leave a lasting legacy on the projects.
