Impact Futures, The Childcare Company & FRFA are taking on an epic trek up Yr Wyddfa (previously known as Snowdon), the highest peak in Wales and England.

At 1085m high it’s a tough climb to reach the summit and an incredible achievement, but it feels 100 times better knowing that you're also raising funds to help vulnerable children across the UK.

Right now in the UK, a child goes into care every 15 minutes. A shortage of good, loving homes means that many children have a poor experience of being in care. Not all foster or residential homes provide the high-quality care that a child deserves, or are able to meet that child's individual needs.

Children often have to move home several times as their circumstances change, and are moved to homes far from their families. They can struggle to get the support they need from school, health and other services, and they can feel ignored by professionals when they speak up.

With your support, we aim to change that by provide safe and stable homes through our fostering services and are campaigning for or UK governments to take immediate action on children's social care by:

- Focus on providing high-quality homes for children

- Invest in recruiting, training, and supporting brilliant carers and staff.

- Listen to the experiences of care-experienced children and young people, and include them in decision making.

- Make faster progress on reform: children in care can't afford to wait years for change to happen.
