Follow your dreamz performing arts is based in Portsmouth, Hampshire, a non-profit performing arts company committed to a vision of bringing the arts to everyone – an all inclusive group, no matter their age, ability, or background.

Follow your dreamz performing arts was founded on the belief that everyone has the right to experience the joy and personal benefit that comes from the arts. We know that the performing arts are a fantastic way of building confidence, increasing self esteem, and trying new things, also learning about yourself and others.

We are proud to offer opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds; from our Drama and youth theatre, acting, professional performances, working also with industry professionals and we also offer arts awards for our older children.

Early years are a crucial period of development for children. The NHS Birth to Five Guide covers a wide range of topics, providing lots of important information and tools to help parents through the different stages of child development

Hello! We’re FoodCycle Portsmouth John Pounds Centre. We collect food from retailers that would otherwise be thrown away, and with the help of lovely volunteers cook it up into a tasty, healthy three-course meals for those most in need in our city.

We cook and serve tasty three-course hot meals from The John Pounds Centre in Old Portsmouth every Wednesday at 6pm.

FoodCycle runs free community meals using surplus food to reduce food waste, food poverty, and loneliness in the community. It is no questions asked and you do not need to book in advance in order to attend as a guest. Simply turn up at the John Pounds Centre at 6pm on a Wednesday and you will be served a delicious 3 course meal. All our meals are vegetarian, but if you have other dietary requirements, please let the volunteers know when you arrive.

The Forces Employment Charity provides life-long, life-changing support, jobs and training opportunities to Service leavers, veterans, reservists and their spouses, partners and children, regardless of circumstances, rank, length of service, or reason for leaving.

We support spouses and partners, including divorced, separated, and bereaved, on their journey into employment. We understand that Service life and transition can impact the whole family, so we offer mentoring and career guidance to young people aged 16-24.

If you need help with your CV, advice on returning to work after a break, or advice on transferring skills and qualifications from the military, we can help!
You can access a variety of pathway events and support through Op ASCEND, a free service offered to veterans and all military families (including those whose family members are still serving). For further details, please visit the Forces Employment Charity’s website.

Portsmouth City Council needs more foster carers, aged 21+, to provide homes for Portsmouth children and young people.

Fostering is an incredibly rewarding, home-based career with a number of options available to work for you. As well as the personal satisfaction from making a difference to a child’s life, you will benefit from significant support yourself on a 24/7 basis. You will also receive full training prior to your first placement and an ongoing training calendar all year round.

Foster carers do an amazing job in helping children and young people reach their full potential.
