Covid-19 Emergency Appeal

to support our children and our care workers

At this critical time we are appealing for your support to keep our children and our front line care staff as safe as possible, so that we can continue with our life-saving therapeutic work. We have two key needs:

For our Staff
Throughout the pandemic, we expect to have care workers self-isolating for up to two weeks. To ensure that we have enough staff to look after our children, their absences must be covered by additional staff. The cost to the charity will be £500 per week per staff member affected.

We will also be offering staff temporary accommodation close to our Children's Homes - for up to two weeks - to protect their families and to mitigate the spread of the virus.

For our Children
It is essential that we maintain a framework of normality for our children. Whilst they are unable to go to school an enhanced timetable of therapeutic, educational and recreational activities will enable them to feel safe and offer them a sense of progress and achievement. We are therefore appealing for funds for laptops for home schooling, trampolines and other play equipment, arts & crafts, puzzles, paints and kites.

We would therefore be most grateful if you would consider making a contribution towards any of the following by clicking on the donate button below:
