Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page.

I am playing 12 sponsored gigs to raise donations for and awareness of BECOME.

The charity supports vulnerable children in the care system to help them fulfil their potential. In the UK there are ~100,000 children in care as a result of family circumstances through no fault of their own. Each year ~10,000 are turfed out at the age of 18 and have to fend for themselves.

Without family support, many care-experienced young people struggle with life's challenges and have been hit hard by the effects of the pandemic. Calls to BECOME's Care Advice Line have doubled since the beginning of 2020.

Donating via JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they send your money directly to the charity. You can even opt out of JustGiving’s service charge so 125% of your donation (including Gift Aid if applicable) goes to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Many thanks and best wishes,
