Breaking Barriers: Ensuring Every Child Can Thrive with Potential Plus UK
At Potential Plus UK, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential—regardless of their family's financial situation. But for too many children, economic barriers stand in the way of the specialist support they need to flourish.
The Problem: Talent is Everywhere, But Opportunity is Not
Every year, thousands of families turn to Potential Plus UK for guidance and support in raising and educating high-potential children. Yet, a combined 34% of families require concessionary memberships or scholarships because they simply cannot afford the cost of our services. This means that without financial aid, many children miss out on the resources, assessments, and expert advice that could transform their educational journey and well-being.
Our Mission: Removing Barriers for Families in Need
We are launching this campaign to ensure that no child is left behind simply because of financial hardship. The funds we raise will provide unrestricted support, allowing us to:
✅ Expand our scholarship programme, giving more families access to vital services.
✅ Offer concessionary memberships, so children from disadvantaged backgrounds can benefit from our expert guidance and community.
✅ Sustain our core work, ensuring that we can continue to advocate for and support the UK's most talented young minds, no matter their circumstances.
Every Contribution Makes a Difference
Your donation—whether £5 or more—will directly help a child access the support they need. With your help, we can ensure that gifted children from all backgrounds receive the opportunities they deserve, rather than being held back by financial constraints.
Real Stories, Real Impact
"Our son was increasingly struggling to fit in and feeling different, but he wasn’t showing the typical signs of being gifted that his school recognised. The assessment with Potential Plus UK was incredibly helpful. It identified him as dual or multiple exceptional (DME), which gave us the clarity we needed. Now, we have a wealth of information to support him effectively at home, in school, and with medical professionals. It’s been a turning point for understanding and meeting his needs."
Our 2024 scholarship fund survey revealed that 80% of recipients would have been unable to access an assessment without our financial support, while the remaining 20% would have faced significant financial hardship without help from Potential Plus UK.
Join Us in Breaking Down Barriers
For 58 years, we’ve empowered children to thrive—with your help, we can do it for another 58. Every donation, no matter how small, transforms a child’s future.
Together, we can make sure that every child, regardless of their financial background, has the chance to thrive. Please donate today and share this campaign to help us reach more families in need.
