Local neighbourhoods need long term investment for change, yet funding initiatives are often short-lived and piecemeal. In this anniversary year, we are asking you to invest with us in communities where change is most needed, through a regular donation. Your commitment will help scale up what we know works to more neighbourhoods and deepen this grassroots work.
The work’s not done
We work in 52 neighbourhoods across the UK that are often labelled as ‘deprived’ – where poverty is deep rooted. We know too many families and communities feel excluded and ignored, lacking hope that anything will change for themselves or their children. But with 40 years of experience on the ground, we believe in the power of local communities to come together and create a new story.
Regular donations will help fund three essential pillars of transformation
- Joined-up support for every family. More family support teams, advice services, counselling, coaching, and employment skills and pathways.
- A mentor for every young person. Bringing together volunteers as well as specialist youth workers to be the ‘trusted adult’ that can help a young person thrive.
- A place to belong. Community spaces and activities that provide welcome, relationship, and opportunity to organise and work together for change.
Will you help ensure no neighbourhood is left behind? Start your regular gift today or get in touch to talk about how you could invest for the long term, and partner with a local neighbourhood for change.
