We are thrilled to announce that out of 846 small charities who applied across the country, we have been chosen as one of 194 to benefit from the very first Small Charity Week Match Funding Campaign!

This joint initiative from the Big Give, Global’s Make Some Noise and the NCVO (National Council for Voluntary Organisations) means that any donations we received towards our Tackling Loneliness project between 23rd and 30th June 2025 will be DOUBLED by the Big Give’s generous donors, which includes organisations such as the People’s Postcode Lottery.

The donation page will open at midday on Monday 23rd June 2025 and close at midday on Monday 30th June. Any donations made via this link during that time, up to a total of £1,000, will be doubled – making double the difference to local older people living with a visual impairment. All funds raised will be used to help tackle loneliness through volunteer befriending and social activities.

We really hope that local individuals, businesses and community groups will get behind this campaign and help us make the most of this unique opportunity to double the value of donations during Small Charity Week (23rd-30th June).

The donation page, which will open at midday on Monday 23rd June 2025 can be found here: https://bit.ly/43x8aqN
