Every child deserves a chance to thrive, yet many disadvantaged children arrive at primary school behind and never catch up, leading to lives scarred by unfulfilled potential and poverty.

At the Maritime Children's Foundation, we believe in breaking this cycle by providing essential support to families from the very start of a child's life. Our programs include parenting classes, one-on-one mentoring for children and families, and vital services brought directly into schools, such as NHS check-ups. We then ensure that every child has the resources they need to transition successfully to secondary school.

When children and their families receive the help they need, vulnerable children can unlock their potential and escape the poverty trap. This is why we are walking 26 miles on June 21st, 2025. Your support can make a significant difference in the lives of these children.

Join us in this mission. By donating, you are contributing to a brighter future for these children. JustGiving will send your money directly to our charity without any unnecessary delays or costs. Together, we can create lasting change and help these children escape the poverty trap.
