Grant A Smile

They can go into the family home and help with chores, including cleaning, washing, ironing and gardening. This sort of support has a magical effect, as once the house is in order it allows families to have less stressful lives and spend more vital time together, without the worry of all the jobs that need to be done.

As well as giving practical support in the home one of their volunteers, a mental health specialist and a life coach, gives psychological support.

We awarded them a grant during the coronavirus pandemic as they were inundated with requests for help and their 36 volunteers had to distribute food parcels to those that needed to sheild.
