We support organisations that provide services for children whose lives have been affected by physical, mental or sexual abuse. We also fund work that seeks to reduce the risk of abuse and create a positive environment for children growing up.
Of particular interest are targeted programmes that aim to prevent abuse and neglect, and work that addresses the behaviour of perpetrators.
