How does recycling my car benefit children?
Your car donation helps to positively impact the lives of disadvantaged children in the UK. Little Lives UK aims to support children that are living with disabilities or are having to live in challenging environments due to a lack of resources, low family income, exclusion and other factors which negatively impact their lives. Our mission is to ensure that all children are given the opportunity and resources to reach their full potential in life.We are able to tackle this with our 4 campaigns:
Our ‘Someone to talk to’ campaign offers children free private counselling sessions, funded by us, which reduces the strain on the NHS and gives children faster access to mental health support.
Our ‘Technology programme’ provides devices to disadvantaged children so that they can do their homework and connect with peers.
