Our aim is to always be there for those who need us, and to be led by our values of: courage, care and connectivity. We always put our children and families first and seek to provide high quality care at all times.

This wouldn’t be possible without your generous support and donations. This is why we want to be as transparent as possible about the way we work, so you can feel secure that your donations are being used in the best possible way.

What we want to achieve as a charity

To excel in all we do, acting with compassion, integrity and innovation
To reach everyone who needs our help
To be leaders and innovators in research and education
To provide sustainable healthcare that stays true to our values

We place children and young people, their families and carers at the heart of all we do and are passionate about the difference we make.

How we spend your money

For every £1 we spend

68p

goes directly to our care services

32p

goes to vital support costs - like fundraising and our retail departments

Your donations have meant that in the last year we’ve been able to:

Care for 293 children and young people
Give 1,462 counselling and support sessions to local families
Make 1,250 visits to families in their own home
2,293 children, young people, siblings, parents, carers and grandparents attended our activity events

We couldn’t provide the care we do without the collaboration of our dedicated staff and volunteers.

A big running team for the Brighton Marathon

As we're registered with the Fundraising Regulator we will ensure our fundraising is legal, open, honest, fair and respectful.
