We are facing a reduced income due to our charity shop having to close for now, fundraising events being cancelled and people not able to pop coins in our collection tins.
There are many different ways you can make a difference. Details are found on our Donate now page.
We deliver a wide range of projects across Kent, Medway, East Sussex and London.
