Family Fund believes that all families raising disabled and seriously ill children should have the same opportunities as others. With our grants and services we aim to help break down many of the barriers these families face, improving their quality of life and easing the additional daily pressures.

Story

Calling all runners over the age of 17! Are you ready to clock up the miles, enjoy the beautiful city of Cardiff and set yourself a challenge to raise money to support families in Wales caring for a disabled or seriously ill child? Then take part in the Cardiff Half Marathon 2023!

Your support is essential: Families pay three times higher costs to care for their disabled child and face severely reduced income due to the round-the-clock care and support they provide.

The cost-of-living crisis magnifies what families like mine have already been suffering with for years! said Jo, a mum and carer of three.

From essential items like kitchen appliances or clothing, to travel to hospital appointments, much-needed family breaks and in-depth information and support, Family Fund is a national charity that aims to reduce the financial pressures of raising a disabled child and make life easier.

Every penny raised from the Cardiff half marathon will help Family Fund provide grants to families raising a disabled or seriously ill child .

Without the Family Fund grant we would have had to wait a long time to get a new fridge freezer - Olivia, mum and carer.
