Amidst our enforced closure, due to the Covid-19 outbreak, we are delighted to have received some good news from the Community Foundation. We are very grateful to have been awarded a £10,000 grant, which will contribute towards our charity’s core funding costs.  This is a a huge boost, in what has otherwise been a very testing period for the community at large.

We would like to thank the Community Foundation for their ongoing support of our charity, which in turn makes a huge difference to the disabled children we support.

The Community Foundation acts as a hub for individuals, families, businesses, and other charities that want to give to communities, by matching their interests with those seeking funding.

It provides help for children and older people, people affected by disadvantage and ill-health and those seeking education and work, as well as providing grants to support the arts, the environment, community activities and amateur sport.

The Newcastle-based charity, the UK’s biggest Community Foundation, has built an endowment of over £xx million from donations to the various funds it holds.
