Helping children and young people in care.

Helping children and young people in care 

Opportunity to help

Be part of the solution

Make a difference

Most children in care have their belongings moved in black bin bags or plastic shopping bags.  Many are victims of neglect or abuse, and often experience poor employment outcomes.

Lost and unseen in the care system, they aren’t given a voice. This means that society is unaware of the problems they face.

With your help we will provide bags, raise awareness of these issues and find solutions.

We Give

Pack-away travel bags to help children in care make their way with dignity. 

We Promote

How incredible children in care are.

We Empower

Care-experienced youth with job training and entrepreneurial opportunities.

We are the registered charity at the heart of the Madlug™ movement.
Providing bags, raising awareness and finding solutions.
