Your Fundraising Makes A Huge Difference

A £5 donation pays for a food parcel for a young girl affected by poverty and mental health issues, ensuring she can access healthy food to improve her physical and emotional wellbeing.

Your support enables us to continue to be there for children in your local area, helping them to be the best they can be, and supporting them when they need it most.

THE IMPACT OF YOUR FUNDRAISING

£2 PAYS FOR A HYGIENE PACK

for a young person affected by poverty, providing basics like toothpaste and body wash to help improve health and confidence

£25 PAYS FOR A 1:1 SUPPORT SESSION

for a young girl whose mum has died, helping her understand her feelings.

£40 PAYS FOR ONLINE GROUP SESSIONS

for 40 young people affected by social anxiety, helping them build confidence and develop relationships.
