Little Lives UK are proud to be a London based children’s charity. We support disabled and disadvantaged children and young people in their London communities to help them build stronger futures. Working within our communities we identify some of the major problems that London’s children are facing and organise projects that will help try to resolve these issues.

We provide opportunities to children around London, that will help them build confidence, so they can go on to become safe, responsible and happy adults.

Strength and Learning Through Horses

Strength and Learning Through Horses offer a short six-week programme, with the ultimate goal being to help improve the mental health of many youngsters who have been affected by lockdown.

They provide equine therapy and equine assisted learning to vulnerable youngsters from all across London, who work in small groups with the horses, learning how to take care of them. The sessions hugely help the young people learn valuable life skills such as teamwork and leadership skills whilst benefitting from increased confidence, resilience and new friendships.

Our funding to Strength and Learning Through Horses is going towards the costs of managing the stable. The horses are central to their work, so it is vitally important to ensure that they are well looked after, making our donation all the more vital.

Our ‘Someone to talk to’ project will bring essential mental health services into schools in areas of London most in need. Working with the London Children’s Practice, we’re funding therapy sessions for children who need support. Poor mental well-being amongst children increases the likelihood in later life or antisocial behaviour, drug and alcohol misuse, and involvement in criminal activity. It’s vital that we help our children now.

Despite the developments there have been in the technological world, there are still many children that don’t have access to any technological devices. In order to guarantee that children can acquire such items, we have launched our technology programme, where we will donate up to 25 electronic items to schools and other children’s organisations, so that many children can then learn more from using these devices.
