Supporting families raising disabled and seriously ill children and young adults across the UK
About us
Family Fund is the UK’s largest charity providing grants for families raising disabled or seriously ill children and young people. Last year, we provided 149,138 grants or services to families across the UK. We believe that all families raising disabled and seriously ill children and young people should have the same opportunities as others. Beginning with the most vulnerable, those on low incomes, and considering all conditions against our disability criteria, we aim to make a difference to outcomes for children and young people with disabilities or serious illnesses and the lives of the families raising them across the UK. As the UK’s largest grant-making charity for families raising a disabled or seriously ill child, on a low income, we’re dedicated to supporting families. We partner with corporate allies and funders to provide lasting impact through quality grant items like white goods, beds and mattresses, clothing, and family breaks, as well as first-class wider support information and resources on finance and budgeting, special education and carer wellbeing. Our team is passionate about making a difference, working with committed colleagues and encouraging a positive work-life balance through flexible working arrangements in an inclusive environment. Together, we can help relieve pressure in families daily lives.

Six-year-old Honey raised an amazing £600 for Family Fund earlier this month doing a Santa Dash with her family and friends🎅 Mum Holly told us that "Honey was very keen to give back after receiving support from Family Fund. She has cerebral palsy, ARFID and ASD. Despite these struggles she put her all in and did it!" A massive thank you to Honey from all of us here at Family Fund, an absolute superstar! 💜

You can help make life easier for families raising disabled or seriously ill children this winter. Whether it’s a grant to cover hospital costs, so a parent can be there for a critically ill child. A new dishwasher, so a mum has the time to play with her disabled child. Or a replacement for a broken sofa- so a sick child can recover from treatment in the comfort of their home. Every donation, however small, makes a massive difference. https://lnkd.in/etPZmARh #Fundraising #BigGive Big Give

“We live every single day in fight or flight, constantly watching and panicking. The Family Fund grant allowed us to book a break that would suit us all. The kids loved the lights and had so much fun without getting overwhelmed. “This break gave us the rest we needed, while being able to watch the kids being free, safe and happy.” https://lnkd.in/eS-58_bk You can give big (or small) this winter, to help families make memories. Every donation made this week will be doubled by our match funders. 👇 https://lnkd.in/eKgh_EQx Big Give #BigGiveChristmasChallenge #FamilySupport
