Rainbow Trust Children's Charity
Rainbow Trust Children's Charity provides practical and emotional support to families who have a child with a life threatening or terminal illness. For those families life can be unthinkably tough. We have teams of Family Support Workers across England who help families however they may need it; whether it be around the house, in the hospital, or collecting siblings from school. We are contactable 24 hours a day via our helpline for families in crisis and we are there from diagnosis, through treatment and even after bereavement and beyond.
Since Rainbow Trust was first founded in 1986, we have been able to help thousands of families. We rely almost entirely on voluntary donations, and in the past year we have been able to help over 2000 families in so many different ways.
Some of those families have shared their stories in short videos that are available on Youtube. In these clips they talk about the difference that Rainbow Trust has made to their lives. These really help us to raise our profile and tell more people about the work we do.

Our Vision
A world of protection and opportunity for children living alone and at risk on the streets.
Railway Children is an international children's charity. We fight for vulnerable children who live alone at risk on the streets, where they suffer abuse and exploitation.
In the UK, society often denies their existence, and in other countries the problem is so prevalent that it has become 'normal'.
They run away or are forced to leave homes where they suffer poverty, violence, abuse and neglect. They find themselves living on the streets because there is nowhere else to go and no one left to turn to. The problems they face on the streets are often even worse than those they endured at home. Every day we fight to change their story.
Railway Children race to reach children as soon as they arrive on the streets and intervene before an abuser can. Our pioneering work enables us to get to street children before the streets get to them.
