Our mission is to make things better for children and young people living at a disadvantage, now and for their future. The impact of our work is happier, healthier, and more independent children and young people, who are empowered to meet their unique potential and have the most fulfilling future possible.

We have various programmes designed to enhance all aspects of children's lives, ranging from large-scale building projects to simple yet special days out. These initiatives aim to create meaningful improvements and memorable experiences for children in our communities who most need our help.

Since 2022, we've worked with schools, families, businesses and communities across Yorkshire to deliver practical support where it's needed most.

Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we're changing lives every day and creating opportunities for thousands of children across the region.

Gigi’s world is filled with challenges, including a respiratory disorder that requires her to sleep at a 40-degree angle. Her old bed was unsafe, with the threat of tangled oxygen wires causing constant worry. Every night, her parents, Charlotte and Curtis, would take turns staying awake, never fully able to relax, because Gigi’s safety was always on their minds.

Gigi’s parents applied for an individual grant to fund a specialist bed, now they can sleep soundly knowing she is safe.

Practical support for children across Yorkshire when life gets harder.
