Partner With Children With Voices

Ways we can work together.

A partnership does not need to look one way. It can be practical, strategic, programme-based, skills-based or community-led.

  • Programme partnerships to support SEND, youth, food, wellbeing or school-based activities.

  • Skills-based partnerships where teams share expertise, mentoring, workshops or professional support.

  • Community partnerships that help reach families, build trust and strengthen local support networks.

  • Resource partnerships through food, equipment, venues, materials or in-kind support.

  • Strategic partnerships for organisations who want to support long-term community impact.

Partners can support work across the charity.

Your organisation may want to support one specific programme or help strengthen several areas of our community work.

Community Food Hub

Support food access, family wellbeing and dignity-led practical help.

SEND and inclusive activities

Help create supportive spaces for children with additional needs and their families.

Schools and young people

Support school collaborations, youth voice, learning activities and confidence-building work.

Events and community outreach

Help bring families, volunteers, partners and local residents together.

A relationship built around trust, clarity and impact.

We want partnerships to be meaningful for both sides. Partners should understand what they are supporting, how they can help and what difference their contribution makes.

Clear purpose
We connect support to real programme and community needs.

Practical collaboration
We agree what each side can contribute and how the partnership will work.

Impact updates
Where possible, we share updates on what the partnership helped make happen.

Public acknowledgement
Partners may be acknowledged through agreed website, social or event visibility.
