Our Founder's Circle brings together regular supporters who are committed to helping Southside to support children, young people, families and people affected by trauma and abuse in our communities.

Donating a small amount every month helps us to support survivors of domestic abuse, local families and to provide nutritious food, creative activities, play and peer support in our Community Hub Groups.

A small monthly donation makes a big difference in these groups where families shape the activities and priorities for their group, and help to run them. Recent feedback includes:

"The group is a place where I always feel welcome. It's SEND friendly and its one of the few places I can take both my children as it’s so difficult to find after school clubs like this."

"The peer to peer support is great and the food is a welcome relief as it takes the stress out of having to think about an evening meal."

By joining our Founder's Circle, you will:

• become part of a special group of supporters whose regular giving helps us plan ahead and inspires us all

• receive a short quarterly update from Southside's Founder, Penny McKissock MBE, to keep you connected to news from the Community Hub Groups and the impact of your kind support

• be invited to our annual Founder's Circle gathering with Penny to thank you all and share the difference made by your gifts

Southside's vision is for people and families to thrive, and we support over 1,500 children, young people and adults in our local communities across Bath and North East Somerset each year. We help them to access the care and support needed so they can enjoy the positive outcomes they deserve: safety, resilience, wellbeing, positive sense of identity, healthy relationships and connections.
