Supporting Children and Families with Special Needs
Southend
Sunflower Trust is a registered charity that primarily provides
financial assistance for children with special needs, who live within
the borough of Southend on Sea in Essex.
By helping with funding for equipment, social and health care, education
and personal development, we endeavour to enable these children to reach
their individual potential.
Working on an annual basis, the trust’s intent is to donate the maximum
available finance. We do this by fund raising events and ticket sales.
In association with Scope, we are looking to create a wider awareness of
our trust and welcome any interest from anyone wishing to volunteer
their time.
Equally, we are seeking local businesses to act as sponsors to aid us in
our endeavours to provide as much support to local children and their
families, as possible.
We invite you to browse our website to see our project achievements.
