Help level the playing field

As we see children fall behind their wealthier peers, we need to act quickly before all the damage is done, before all their potential is lost. Will you help children and young people get the best possible start in life?

My family are from Fermanagh in Northern Ireland and I grew up in Dagenham. My mum often used to invite children into our house for beans on toast after school. I remember watching them eating with urgency. My mum used to say they didn’t have enough at home to keep them going. That stayed with me.
