Charities and Organisations We Support

Christchurch and Somerford Youth Centre Logo

We were introduced to this charity in 2019 through our work with Cash for Kids.

Through the efforts of mainly volunteers, this community centre which serves one of the country’s highest areas of deprivation, supports, feeds and entertains up to 300 local children per week – surviving entirely on grants and donations.

In addition to providing places for children to take part in the Poole Town soccer school days, the Trust were delighted to provide a grant of £2,500 to the Centre which was put towards the purchase of its own minibus.

Christmas For Kids Logo

C4K is a charity which devises and performs shows for free at children’s hospices.

Their shows are specially written and designed to be multi-sensory, interactive, fun and accessible – comprising singing, storytelling, puppetry and lots of silliness.

Their audiences are unique in the range of disabilities and their needs, from life-limiting illnesses to profound multiple learning difficulties. The only unifying factor is that they are unable to attend the theatre at this magical time of year, so they bring the theatre to them, to their families and their carers.

For the past 2 years we have provided funding to enable C4K to provide their show for free to 6 hospices in the south and west of England each year.

Mission Christmas - Cash For Kids

Wave 105 (Southern England)

Cash for Kids is Bauer Radio’s network of local charities, which operate across 22 areas around the UK. Our mission is to respond to the needs of children in our communities, and we aspire to enable all children to live life to the full and achieve their individual potential.

Each Cash for Kids charity was established to channel the caring of the local community into the welfare of their own youngsters. We use the power of our radio brands to deliver initiatives for sick and underprivileged children in our communities, to benefit local children and give the most disadvantaged a better and brighter future.

Julia's house logo

Julia’s House is a charity dedicated to supporting children with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions living in Dorset and Wiltshire. The majority of these children are unlikely to live into adulthood. It provides frequent respite and end-of-life care in its hospices in Corfe Mullen and Devizes and in families’ own homes across the two counties. As well as caring for children it also supports parents and siblings.

Julia’s House looks after the whole family, not just the sick child.

Julia’s House receives just 5% of its total annual funding from the government, making it one of the worst-funded hospices in the UK. The charity relies on public fundraising and donations for 95% of its income.

Their mission:

To reach more children with life-shortening and life-threatening conditions and to set the gold standard in flexible, bespoke care that supports the whole family

Their vision:

For local families of life-limited and life-threatened children to be able to access the help they need, when and where they need it and for every member of the family to feel supported, valued, cherished.

The service that Julia’s House provides has been rated ‘outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission.
