We believe in the transformative power of play to nurture disadvantaged children recovering from complex trauma. We support healing through physical activities, trips, and holidays within the UK and abroad. The glue that binds our programmes together is a commitment to creating a safe, inclusive, and loving environment where happy memories can flourish.

Story

At Solidarity Sports, we look after very vulnerable children who are recovering from complex trauma. Through our projects, we aim to provide crucial care and attention to children, which helps to build up their self-esteem and confidence. We offer mentoring for our most vulnerable children - 1:1 weekly sessions give a child consistent emotional support that proves to be transformative.

Thank you to everybody who took care of Noah*... as you know I am wheelchair-bound and unable to walk... Noah would never be able to do these things if he were at home with me. This is a wonderful opportunity for him and he loves it. He's a very active 5-year-old and having Solidarity to take him out for the whole day is just fantastic ". (Mother of 3 children, who attend our school holiday trips)

*Name changed for confidentiality

We have been supporting over 150 Afghan refugee children to settle into London life. Our after-school trips allow them to familiarise themselves with London and to play in a safe and nurturing environment.

Your Zakat donation is vital for us to continue giving support to our children.

By donating you will help us to:

- Deliver projects to our children; providing support, care and attention.

- Increase the number of children enrolled on our weekly mentoring programme

- Support families in financial crisis by helping to reduce debt from energy companies and providing essentials and food

At last I can cook and not make sandwiches for dinner. I keep the girls warm at the same time. Thank you so much." (Mother of two girls)

Last year we launched our first Zakat campaign, raising £5,700! With these generous donations, we were able to help children and their families who were isolated and struggling during the lockdown.

This year, we want to beat last year's total to support more children than ever!
