2025 Annual Report Published

We invite you to read our latest annual report, sharing impact highlights and stories from the past year. The report also looks ahead to our work in 2026 and beyond.

Key highlights from the past year:

• We grant funded four projects in Romania and the UK, establishing new community partnerships in Hull and London.
• 200+ children were reached by our funded programmes.
• 150+ families were engaged through community activities.
• We continued our support for Casa Maria in Romania. The home continues to provide specialist residential care for 12 children with severe disabilities and complex needs. Throughout 2025, children benefited from personalised care, therapeutic support, education and opportunities to participate in activities that enhance independence and wellbeing.
• 5,000 shoeboxes distributed across Romania to children, teenagers and older adults. As well as to the children at Casa Maria, we distributed shoeboxes to over 20 other locations including schools, churches, residential care centres and community projects across Romania, bringing joy to those who need it most.
• 40+ volunteers dedicated thousands of hours to supporting our work.
• We continued to invest in our charity retail operations and fundraising activities to ensure our long-term sustainability.

None of our work would be possible without the dedication of our volunteers, supporters, donors and partners. On behalf of our staff and Board of Trustees, we extend our sincere thanks to you all for your continued support.
