Why fundraise for The Forward Trust?
Every event helps fund life-changing support for people overcoming addiction, unemployment, and life during - and after - serving a prison sentence.
How will my fundraising donation help vulnerable people?
You’re fundraising donation will really help people to rebuild and transform lives of some of the most marginalised and vulnerable people in society.
Many of our service users have experienced deep trauma - often starting in childhood - and are now working through complex mental health conditions that are strongly imapcted by circumstance, environment and gaps in adequate support. The Forward Trust helps people from all walks of life to work through substance use addictions, homelessness, unemployment, and family problems.
Besides our addiction and recovery services in the community and prisons, Forward is able to help people every step of the way to start a brighter future.
We provide housing places, employability and enterprise support, and peer-led recovery community programmes to help service users make new friends.
