Spark UK is the UK's leading youth-led mental health organisation. Founded in 2020, our aim is to 'spark' the conversation around mental health in young people across the United Kingdom by creating campaigns and resources
This winter, Spark UK is launching our flagship campaign for the fourth year—the All Star Advent campaign—to inspire, support, and empower young people across the UK. At Spark UK, we believe that mental health should never be a taboo topic, especially during the holiday season when loneliness and stress can feel overwhelming. Our All Star Advent campaign aims to spread daily messages of hope, resilience, and mental well-being to young people through an engaging and interactive advent calendar.
We have joined forces with some big names including Stephen Fry & Fern Britton to share their mental health tips of the day.
But we can’t do it alone. We need your help to make this campaign as impactful as possible.
Each day in December, young people will unlock a virtual advent calendar window revealing a powerful message, a fun activity, or an inspirational story from a well-known figure. These daily surprises are designed to lift spirits, foster a sense of community, and encourage open conversations about mental health. By funding this campaign, you're not just helping us deliver content—you’re helping to create a lifeline for those who need it most.

- Create Meaningful Content: With your support, we can collaborate with mental health experts, influencers, and celebrities to create content that truly resonates and inspires.
