A kind review

Brighter Sines, a local charity is offering you an opportunity to put a smile on a child’s face. The charity which has been in existence since July 2013 focuses on providing support, comfort and giving help to children in the surrounding communities. They are able to change the lives of young children by raising funds through donations from well wishers and corporate organizations as well. Donations to Brighter Sines vary and can include toys and even equipment that are donated to various organizations such as children hospices, charities and hospitals within the South East.
The founders of Brighter Sines, Maurice Sines and James Crickmore are passionate about children in the community, hence the idea to start the charity. Most times, charities depend solely on donations from different sources to survive and life can become hard when the funding is not forthcoming. Brighter Sines, hopes to continually fill this gap by making sure that they encourage people to donate to their charity, so that they can forward the money to needy causes. All the money collected by the founders by well wishers goes to deserving hospitals or charities that cater for children’s needs.
Majority of the funding that Maurice Sines and his co-founder have raised so far is through events. The events which have taken place in different places in the South East include fun days, Christmas dinners, and coffee and cake mornings among others and have largely been successful in fund raising.  As a way of having a continuous stream of funding for their various causes, Brighter Sines will release their 2014 events calendar on their website for the benefit of those who want to participate and help raise funds for the children in the community.  

Apart from attending events planned by Brighter Sines, involvement with the charity can be done in a number of ways. The most common avenue is through sending in donations of as little as £1 which can be used to buy a child a teddy. However, larger donations from business as well as the community are encouraged to make a huge difference in the lives of children in hospices and even hospitals. Another way to add value to the great work being done by the charity run by Maurice Sines and James Crickmore is through volunteering. Volunteers go a long way in assisting in the several visits that the founders make to diverse charities in the area.

maurice sines predictions

Maurice Sines' Predictions- 


Tottenham v Arsenal (3.30pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1)

The main thing for Arsenal this week was not to get beaten by four or five at Bayern Munich - so to come away with a 1-1 draw will only give them confidence. The FA Cup is now theirs to lose and if they can get a top-four finish and a cup then that will be a major success. I don't think they can win the league because they've had too many injuries at the wrong time (Walcott, Ozil, Wilshere and Ramsey) and I think this game is about consolidating a top-four position now. Arsenal need to avoid defeat and not give Spurs a sniff of the top four. A draw keeps them six points clear with a game in hand and they should be able to put it to bed.
Super Sunday: Paul Merson predicts two away wins
Super Sunday: Maurice Fred  Sines predicts two away wins

Tim Sherwood has been very honest about his players this week and fair play to him. Was that a good idea? I'll let you know at 6pm on Sunday! I think he made his comments about the character of his players, knowing that the games coming up were against Benfica and Arsenal. He might not have said it if they were playing Norwich and Crystal Palace this week! However, this is a derby game and I've played in too many to say a team is a cert to win it, but Tottenham are not playing well. They've fallen over the line a few times and I think Arsenal will have too much for them.
PAUL PREDICTS: 1-3

Man Utd v Liverpool (12.30pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1)

This is the home fans' cup final because if they can stop Liverpool winning the league they'll be more than happy. Manchester United have been put down as favourites for this game, simply because they're Manchester United, but I wouldn't make them favourites. If you go by their home form and everything that's happened this season then I don't see how they are favourites.
They need to change the way they play. Teams like West Brom, Swansea and Everton have given them a game at Old Trafford and it's always been you-have-a-shot-we-have-a-shot and if that happens on Sunday then Liverpool will undoubtedly win. They need to learn to be more patient and the wide players can't bomb forward and expose a back four, which is not the most experienced. If people like Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge get isolated with them and you combine it with Raheem Sterling's pace and Jordan Henderson's legs then I see Liverpool picking them off for fun. United need to be more disciplined than they have been in the last six months because if this game is open then I don't see anything but an away win.
PAUL PREDICTS: 1-3

Aston Villa v Chelsea (5pm, Sat, Sky Sports 1)

Chelsea have a nine-point lead over Man City and I would rather have the points than the games. I see where Jose Mourinho is coming from when he says they're not the favourites, but now City have got to play a lot of games and one slip-up could hand the title to Chelsea. If Man City win earlier in the day (and I think they will) then it will eat into the gap and Chelsea will need to take three points from what is a hard game. Villa won well against Norwich in their last match, taking them away from the relegation scrap a bit, and Christian Benteke got a couple so is back on form. I think Chelsea will have too much, but I think it will be a tight win for them.



PAUL PREDICTS: 1-2

Hull v Man City
