What do we fund?

When things go wrong it might be easier to think you can do without. But it's often the little things that can make a big difference to your children's health and wellbeing. 

That's why our grants fund essential items for children. This might be a proper bed to sleep in, a working cooker for hot meals, a working washing machine for clean clothes or a school uniform that fits. 

We can also fund mobility equipment, sensory toys or educational support for children with a disability or additional needs. Read more.

No two families are the same and each request is based on individual needs on a case by case basis. As a guide, here are some examples of the items our grants can typically fund.
