Elephants in your backyard? For some in the Western Ghats, that's a reality, but it’s also a source of conflict. With about 26,000 wild Asian elephants in India, balancing human-elephant interactions is crucial for peaceful coexistence. Simran Prasad, a doctoral fellow at CWS, is studying the causes behind these conflicts, aiming to find solutions that protect both communities and elephants. We are raising funds to support her vital research and help foster harmony in these shared landscapes. Support Simran's research and make a significant difference in protecting livelihoods and fostering coexistence. Every bit helps.

National Hygiene Week 2024 At DFP we understand that hygiene is about more than just keeping things clean—it’s about creating healthier, safer environments for everyone. Due to the raising cost of living, DFP understand this leaves people in poverty caught between choosing to heat their home, buy food, or keep clean. At DFP we believe that feeling clean is not a luxury, and that why we want to support people to access the basics they need to maintain good hygiene. That is why, we have donated £150 to The Hygiene Bank to help combat hygiene poverty. #HygieneMatters #CleanSpaces #NationalHygieneWeek #DFPServices #FacilityManagement #HygienePoverty
