Bristol Churches City Fund: Child Welfare

Supporting Teenagers: working with Kintsugi Hope

Helping Young People in the Mental Heath Crisis

National charity Kintsugi Hope, founded in recent years by Patrick and Diane Regan, seeks to encourage a more open conversation about the issue of mental health, using support groups (in person and online) to create the context for addressing some of the challenges. They have proven to be incredibly effective, and progress is now being made in setting up a number of support groups for teenagers / youth across the city. Experience to date has shown them to be incredibly beneficial.

Funding is required to support the ongoing roll-out of these groups, often working alongside local secondary schools and building these groups into the range of support provided to young people struggling with their mental health and wellbeing. 

This year the key focus for BCCF is around Child Welfare, with the aim to raise funds to support three strategic initiatives targeted at fostering and adoption (though Home for Good), supporting troubled children at primary school age (through Transforming Lives for Good) and supporting struggling teenagers (through Kintsugi Hope). 

By donating via the BCCF Child Welfare Campaign, you can help support children and young people in the Bristol area. You can help positively impact their well-being and help change their lives.”
