Thank you to our funders

We’re grateful to every trust and foundation that supports our work. Your funding, whether for a specific project or the everyday running of Rainbows, makes a real and lasting contribution to the families we care for. Here are just some of the funders behind our work.

Moto Foundation

Moto Foundation have supported physiotherapy in our hydrotherapy pool. The award from Moto Foundation means we can provide beneficial therapeutic water activities and hydrotherapy sessions for children and young people with serious and terminal conditions from across the East Midlands.

Samuel Gardner Memorial Trust

The Samuel Gardner Memorial Trust supports music education, the arts and the natural world. Their grant has funded music therapy at Rainbows, so children can take part at the hospice, at home and in hospital.

Morrisons and Together for Short Lives: Building a Legacy Together Grant

Through the Building a Legacy Together grant, part of the partnership between Together for Short Lives and Morrisons, Rainbows was awarded funding to refurbish the kitchen in our young people’s lounge, making it fully accessible for those who come to us.

East Midlands Airport Community Fund

With support from East Midlands Airport Community Fund, we’ve installed electric vehicle charging points at the hospice, along with the infrastructure to expand this further in future.

How your funding could help

We’re always excited to hear from new trusts and foundations, whatever your area of interest. Here are some of the ways a grant could support our work.

  • Nursing – supporting our specialist nurses to care for babies, children, young people and their families.
  • Family support – helping our Family Support Workers be there for parents, siblings and the whole family
  • Therapies – funding physiotherapy, music therapy and complementary therapies, at the hospice, in hospital and in the community
  • Core costs – helping us keep our vital services running day to day, wherever families need us
