Meet the trusts and foundations supporting our work
Meet some of the trusts and foundations supporting our mission to make sure that all children and young people can get the mental health support they need, when they need it, no matter what. We are so grateful for the support that we receive from our generous funders.
We always carry out appropriate checks for donations from individuals and organisations, based on our values, guiding insights from our Youth Panel, Charity Commission and legal guidance, and best practise guidance from the Chartered Institute of Fundraising.

Bukhman Philanthropies
Thanks to their incredible support, we exceeded our Big Give Christmas Campaign target. Their ongoing commitment to our Parents Helpline means more parents and carers can access trusted advice, build confidence, and be there for their child's mental health every step of the way.
The National Lottery Community Fund
Over three years, this funding will help us co-produce powerful digital content with young people from marginalised communities, amplifying their lived experiences of mental health and ensuring their voices drive understanding, challenge stigma, and inspire change.
The Julia Rausing Trust
This multi-year funding will expand our Parents Helpline with an extra weekday evening and Saturday service, making support available when families need it most. By increasing access for parents and carers who face the greatest barriers to getting help, we're ensuring more families can find support at the moments that matter most.
