We were delighted to be asked to take part in local radio station RadioPlus’ advent calendar.  Each day, the RadioPlus advent calendar features a different Coventry charity on air  and an opportunity to get involved.

Today, it was Kairos WWT’s turn to open it’s door and tell listeners more about our organisation. You can hear our message here: Kairos Advent Calendar. If you’re interested in the volunteering opportunities mentioned in the feature, please visit this link for further information.

Radio Plus provides responsible and entertaining radio in the Coventry, Warwickshire and surrounding areas in association with voluntary organisations, local authorities, local residents, community groups and businesses in a common effort to strengthen society.You can tune in to RadioPlus on 101.5 or listen live via their website.

Our thanks go to RadioPlus for the opportunity to be part of a wonderful initiative and for helping us to share our message.

At Kairos it’s our mission to reach out to a group of women who are often marginalized and vulnerable in society – women caught up or at risk of prostitution.

 We have met each of our service-users at a time when they needed a source of hope for a better future and support as they try to renew their life.

Of this support, one of our service-users recently said:

 “Kairos was there for me in the dark times of my life and supported me when I needed it the most. And even though I am now in recovery, Kairos still supports and encourages me which helps me stay on the right track of leading a more normal and happier life”

 Kairos is committed to helping many more women find their voice and lead a more fulfilling life. Run by women for women, Kairos is now seeking new volunteers to join our Board of Trustees and marketing committee.

If you have professional experience in marketing, finance, fundraising or HR, then why not make your Christmas more meaningful by finding our more about us today?

Just to remind you all, Kairos has a new page on Facebook where we provide information about up and coming events and share lots of useful links to relevant articles, videos and websites. You can check it out here.

Each year, Coventry celebrates a unique ‘Peace Festival‘ and this year, Kairos WWT is on the programme! Collaborating again with Caste Away Arts and for the first time with the Hillz FM, the Women on Top project are developing a mini-drama series called ‘Life in Peaces’ to be aired during the Peace Festival.  Women on Top will have the opportunity to work with Dj’s Kate Hills and Mandy Devit and learn about the world of radio and sound engineering in Radio Plays. We are going places and on top of the Hillz the view doesn’t get any better!

Of this year’s celebration Coventry City Council say:-

“Coventry is a welcoming city, a caring city, a place of peace and reconciliation. All of the elements outlined in the Coventry Peace Festival Programme for 2011 show how we all work together to build on that principle. As the city continues to grow and improve may it always be a place of sanctuary for those who come to live within it’s boundaries. Let all of us play our part in making this city a welcoming, safe home for those who are born here, study here and those who are escaping difficult situations to change and improve their lives.

Attending the events outlined in this programme give all of us the opportunity to meet with some of the very pro-active peace makers who live in our city and to see how we all benefit from their endeavours.”

You are invited to tune in to the ‘Life in Peaces’ mini drama series on Hillz FM (98.6FM) which will be broadcast on Monday 7th, Tuesday 8th, Wednesday 9th and Friday 11th November 2011 between10.30am – 11.30am. Don’t miss this one off opportunity to experience a unique, first time drama on Hillz FM produced by Kairos WWT in partnership with Caste Away Arts.
