(UK, 1207888) Browse eventsZak’s Wish is a local, family-led charity created in memory of Zak Fairhurst to honour his memory, resilience, and love of life, despite all his challenges. We were set up to support children and young people up to age 25 with additional needs, disabilities or life-limiting conditions, as well as the families who care for them. Our mission is simple: to make life a little easier and a little brighter during challenging times. We do this by granting small wishes, such as sensory toys, sensory items or special experiences; providing essential equipment that improves comfort, independence or daily living; and offering discretionary grants to parents and carers facing the financial strain of long-term hospital stays, travel costs or food vouchers while staying in hospital. Zak’s Wish works closely with local families, schools, and community groups across Corby and surrounding areas, ensuring support is fast, accessible and genuinely meaningful. Every wish we grant is a tribute to Zak’s legacy—spreading kindness, easing pressure and bringing joy to young people who need it most.
We help young people gain the skills they need to shine bright.
(UK, 1197081) Browse eventsControlling Chemsex is a charity created and run by professionals with long experience providing Chemsex support, many of whom have struggled with Chemsex in the past themselves. We are here to provide a new kind of Chemsex intervention to reinforce the support that is currently available, using new technologies to facilitate access to support for everybody, in order to make things as easy as possible for people who find it really difficult to access support, and respecting the fact that confidentiality is highly important for them.
We believe in community-driven health systems, self-reliance, and long-term capacity building.
