The Mastectomy Tattooing Alliance supports people recovering from breast cancer, BRCA-related surgery, or gender-affirming surgery. Founded by tattoo artist Tanya Buxton in Cheltenham 2021, MTA helps people access high-quality areola and mastectomy tattoos. It does this through a voucher scheme and a growing network of vetted artists across the country, helping people rebuild confidence and identity after surgery.
The MoneyHeave Community Project is a grassroots organisation helping young adults and underrepresented communities take control of their finances. Founded by finance professional Roneish Myers, MoneyHeave runs practical workshops on budgeting, debt and saving. These sessions build skills and confidence in places where financial advice is often out of reach. Two in three young adults lack confidence managing money, so MoneyHeave is working to change that, one workshop at a time.
Recycle-IT! is a community interest company based in Bolton, tackling digital exclusion and e-waste by collecting, refurbishing and redistributing IT equipment to people and community groups who need it most. Since launching, the organisation has diverted over 270 tonnes of e-waste from landfill, redistributed more than 3,500 devices, and given dozens of volunteers valuable training and new skills along the way.
Otterhead is an off-grid nature reserve on the Somerset/Devon border, south of Taunton, freely open to the public. The Otterhead Estate Trust manages much of the site, maximising biodiversity and wildlife habitats, while restoring heritage features. The Forest School, based at the Coach House, supports children with complex needs. Their zero-carbon electricity is now generated from a micro hydro-electric turbine, but beavers are damming the water supply nightly, putting this hard-won progress at risk.
YOPEY is a small charity in the East of England that tackles two problems at once: loneliness among care home residents living with dementia, and negative stereotypes of teenagers. It trains young volunteers aged 14 to 19 to visit residents weekly, offering conversation, music and shared activities. Residents build real friendships, while volunteers gain confidence, empathy and skills that last a lifetime. Each year, YOPEY reaches over 500 residents and 200 young people across the East of England.
Emmie’s Kitchen supports parents and carers of seriously ill children at Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital. Founded from lived experience, the charity provides free meals, snack bags, and wellbeing sessions to families facing some of the hardest moments of their lives. With around 100 meals and 80 snack bags delivered every week, Emmie’s Kitchen ensures parents feel seen, nourished, and cared for, because a child’s recovery depends on their parents too.
Billy & Beyond CIC delivers free drug education workshops in schools, youth groups, and community settings. Founded after the tragic loss of Billy Mullin in 2020, the organisation educates young people about the real risks of recreational drug use. Through interactive sessions, real-life stories, and a powerful animated film, Billy & Beyond helps young people make safer, more informed choices, and gives families the tools to have honest conversations that could save lives.
Kinship Carers is a national charity supporting families where children are raised by relatives or close family friends instead of their parents. Operating UK-wide, the charity provides practical advice, emotional support, advocacy and peer connection to kinship carers navigating complex legal, financial and social care systems. Kinship care is the most common form of alternative care in the UK, yet carers often receive little recognition or support. Kinship Carers UK is working to change that.
Wild Plant Paper CIC is a Wales-based social enterprise making handmade paper. Founded by botanist Dr Bryan Collis, they turn invasive weeds and waste materials into beautiful handmade paper, while creating flexible, inclusive work and volunteering opportunities for people excluded from traditional employment. From their converted shipping container studio to their outdoor Himalayan Balsam clearances, their work connects creativity, conservation, and community in equal measure.
Lorry drivers and transport workers keep the country moving, yet for many the road is hard and lonely, and too often they reach crisis point before asking for help. Breaker Breaker is a mental health charity in Northern Ireland dedicated to the haulage industry, founded after Leanne Lyons lost her husband David to suicide. It provides a 24/7 confidential helpline, face-to-face wellbeing support, and a mobile welfare hub visiting truck shows, depots, and rest stops across the UK and Ireland. Since March 2024, it has funded over 200 counselling sessions, and demand is still growing.
