Your donation matters

Young people seeking refuge and asylum in the UK are some of the most vulnerable in our society. With your help we can give them the support, community and confidence they need to flourish. 

While much of our restricted income comes from charitable grants, we are increasingly reliant on donations from members of the public to allow us to adapt quickly and effectively to this challenging and ever-changing world.

Our focus on creative therapeutic methods such as music and art allows for a wide range of support, and our commitment to trauma-informed organisational working means we provide a truly safe and nurturing environment for our vulnerable young community. 

We are also seeking volunteers and equipment

  • Volunteers can help with research, policy & legal; digital skills or other specialisms for refugees (making invoices, understanding how to use digital tools in day-to-day life), marketing, videography for events, cooking and meal preparation.

  • Equipment needed: digital equipment, laptops, recording equipment, musical instruments; cooking: cutlery, cooking equipment, healthy food and ingredients.

If you can help with any of this, please get in touch: contact@playforprogress.com
