Help raise £15,000 to give 25 families hope and new experiences with a much-needed break, so families can feel the difference like Sabina, "For the first time since I became a mum, I felt like we’re a normal family. In that moment, we were just us, and we were having the best time."

Situation
We help families get time away together, often for the first time ever. Holidays open up new possibilities where families can reconnect, try new things, and make happy memories together. We're here for families’ children who have never seen the sea, for teenagers who can’t remember when they last saw their mum smile. For parents having to choose between a day out and a new pair of school shoes. For young carers, kinship carers, families facing illness isolation and bereavement.
Solution
Single mum Sabina had a partner who made life incredibly difficult for her and her son, Dion. Dion has additional needs, and Sabina hoped that some time away in Bognor Regis would help Dion gain confidence and try new things. She was right - Dion’s confidence grew day by day, and Sabina has felt her own confidence grow too. She now feels much more positive about herself and the future. “My partner pulled me down to make himself feel better. But now I know that I’m a great mum. I am enough.”
