We did it
On 8th August 2023 we successfully raised £1,740 ( + est. £376.25 Gift Aid ) with 39 supporters in 28 days

We want to bring 60+ families to Broadstairs for a day-trip this Summer. For many PACT families this will be their Summer holiday.

“Family” and “Home”, these are words often used by our community to describe what PACT means to them. Help us bring our PACT Family to the seaside this summer!

Every Summer we aim to take 50+ families to the beach to enjoy the great British seaside. This is a really special moment for our families, many have never been to a beach before and with us they are able to experience it in a way that feels safe and accessible.

With the cost of living crisis ongoing, as well as the many barriers our community faces (financially, immigration status, health inequalities) we know how important these moments are for our families that may otherwise not have the opportunity to experience them. This is why we want to take 50+ families to Broadstairs this year. 

Your donation will help us cover the coordination and coach costs for our families. Last year we had an incredible time: sea, sun, smiles and jollof! Please help us make this a reality this year too.

About PACT:

We know that being a parent can be lonely and isolating. This is why we bring together parents with early years children to connect, share experiences and form strong support networks. At PACT we believe all parents should thrive and that this will positively impact their children. We encourage parent leadership by enabling parents to connect, learn new things, share skills and campaign for the change they want to see in their community.

In term time we run a programme of weekly activities in the Camberwell and Elephant and Castle area. These include: MumSpace, Espacio Mama (for our Latin American Community), Parent University (Perinatal course) and a number of wellbeing-focused projects like our drop-in coffee morning Be Well Wednesday and Mindful Mamas, a parent-led wellbeing course.
