Our Projects
Here’s where you can find out a little bit more about the projects we fund in Sussex.
About our projects
Working in partnership with local hospitals, respite centres and specialist services, we fund projects which focus on improving children’s physical and emotional well-being, while providing additional support services for parents and carers.
The projects we fund all fit into one of six categories:
- Toys – Toys can really help to pass the time, distract from a painful procedure or help with diagnosis.
- Equipment – From large bit of medical kit to smaller equipment to help with everyday care.
- Spaces – Revamping or creating new, therapeutic spaces in hospitals and the local community.
- Research – Cutting edge research to help move children’s healthcare into the future.
- Activities – Special events and activities to help children and young people manage wellbeing.
- People – Specially trained additional staff to help support patients, families and NHS departments.

The projects we fund and deliver really do change lives. From big bits of medical equipment to a little teddy bear, every single one impacts on the care that babies, children and young people receive.
