They are used normally by asylum seeking young people using our services to brush their teeth and it would be really beneficial if we had a stock of them to give to current/new yp – the same as we do with western toothbrushes for our young people who need them.

For as little as the price of a takeaway coffee, £3 could provide a freshly cooked, hot meal for someone homeless or struggling with other vulnerabilities.

Leprosy can cause a number of deformities and mobility issues, but physiotherapy helps to correct and minimise the effects of these, and has a hugely positive impact on people's daily lives. 

"The Baby" is a magical rhyming book that is intended to support families that are suffering or have suffered with the loss of a baby. Written by talented children’s author Joseph Hopkins in collaboration with registered charity ‘Making Miracles’, the book is intended to help families talk and provoke communication about this tough subject. Research showed that families find talking to young children or siblings particularly hard and that is where ‘The Baby’ can help. Wonderful, simple and calm illustrations are a perfect fit for the book.
