Help us change a child’s life
Support from Trusts and Foundations is key to unlocking a better future for disabled children. At Newlife we value our connections and support with a wide range of trusts and seek to form lasting, strategic partnerships. Whether you can offer a one-off donation or a multi-year grant, your support will help us achieve our mission to improve the lives of disabled children and their families.
Services That You Could Support
Funding from charitable trusts and foundations plays a vital role in helping us continue and expand our services. Here are just some of the areas your support could help:
-
Emergency Equipment Loans
Providing essential equipment like specialist beds or buggies within 72 hours to families in crisis. -
Grants for Equipment
Funding life-changing items that local statutory services often don’t provide—from wheelchairs to specialist beds. -
Nurse-Led Support Services
Helping families navigate complex care challenges with advice and advocacy from our experienced nurses. -
Play Therapy Pods
Lending specialist toys and sensory resources to children with disabilities, supporting development and emotional wellbeing. -
Campaigning and Awareness
Driving national change by highlighting gaps in statutory services and advocating for children’s rights. -
Research and Data Collection
Gathering evidence and insights to inform public policy and improve access to vital support.
Your support helps us meet urgent needs and provide long-term solutions for thousands of families across the UK. Together, we can make sure no child is left without the equipment they need to thrive.


“We are loving trying out all the different toys. Everyone can see progress in Gabriella’s development since having the pods too, as she has been able to match animals with what sound they make. Now that she can sit up by herself, the most recent pod has toys which are appropriate for her to sit and play with.”
Laura, Gabriella’s Mum
How we work with Trusts & Foundations
• We are able to direct your grant to support the direct costs of providing equipment and helping families through our services rather than on running costs.
• We can designate funds to support children within your local area
• We guarantee that 100% of your grant would be used according to your wishes and we provide regular updates and case studies of children helped to show you the impact grants make.

“We’re excited about the difference our grant can make to the lives of families with disabled children thanks to the specialist buggies and wheelchairs that Newlife provide. This is exactly the kind of work we wanted to support when we launched our new grant portfolio last year.”
Lisa Jones, director at Motability

“I’m very pleased we’ve been able to help Newlife with their hugely important work. Without Newlife, thousands of disabled children would be living in pain, unable to do the things that we all take for granted and denied the opportunity to reach their potential.”
Selwyn Burton on behalf of The Masonic Charitable Foundation
