Our supporters
Nothing we do happens on its own.
Every experience we fund is made possible by a business, a venue or a supplier who decided to help — with money, with time, or with something only they could open a door to.
Three kinds of help
Money is only one of them, and often not the most useful.
A cheque pays for a ticket. A phone call from the right person gets a family into a room that was never for sale. We are grateful for both, and we count them the same.
Money
Businesses who fund an experience outright, sponsor a year, or give what they can when they can. It buys the tickets, the travel, the room and the meal — the whole day, not part of it.
Time
Venues and suppliers who hold a table, move a booking at a day’s notice, or look after a family quietly and well on the day. The flexibility is worth more to us than the discount.
Expertise
Legal, accountancy, travel, events, safeguarding, design. Professional time given free is the thing a small charity genuinely cannot buy, and it goes further than almost any donation.
Thank you
The businesses, venues and suppliers behind us.
This page is waiting for its first names.
Living Not Existing is new, and we would rather show an empty page honestly than fill it with logos we have not earned. As businesses, venues and suppliers come on board, they will be named here — with what they gave, and what it made possible.
If you would like to be the first, we would very much like to hear from you.
What we promise supporters
Four things, and we will hold to them.
You will be named, if you want to be
On this page, with what you gave. If you would rather help quietly, that is entirely fine and we will say nothing at all.
You will know where it went
Not a general thank-you — the actual experience your support paid for, and what it meant to the family, as far as they are happy for us to share.
We will not trade on the families
No beneficiary is ever a marketing asset. Nobody’s story is used to raise money without their explicit, separate consent, and receiving our help is never conditional on giving it.
We will not pester you
One conversation, and then we leave you alone unless you ask us not to. No monthly asks, no guilt, no list your details get added to.
