The Big Half 2025 · 7 September 2025 ·

London Big Half
Campaign by Kids Matter UK (RCN 1163617)
We are taking part in the Big Half - a 13.2 mile race around London! This race provides us with a great opportunity to raise some vital funds as we seek to grow our impact and reach more families in need.

Story

Our vision is simple. We want to see every child in need raised in a strong family, where no child is written off simply because of the circumstances they were born into.

We exist because parenting is hard, and exponentially more so for mums, dads and carers who are facing disadvantages. Poverty has an impact on parents’ ability to manage stressful situations and can make good family functioning and strong parent-child relationships difficult, thus affecting child wellbeing.

Our community-based parenting programmes, developed by a team of clinical psychologists and family workers, are accessible to families in lower income brackets. Programmes run in the heart of the local community – facilitators come alongside parents in small friendly groups to equip them with the competence, confidence and community needed to enable their children to thrive.

On 7th September, we are taking part in the Big Half to raise vital funds as we seek to reach more families in need!
