To raise funds to buy bags, items for packs like bedding, new items such as underwear, art materials etc

I’ve started this project, as a foster carer, youth worker and SEND sensory worker!

it’s a project inspired by my own experiences of children and young people looked after, and from them themselves!

I feel that every child/young person deserves to feel respected, cared for, worthy, and treated with compassion!

As they are on their Looked after journey, wherever and whenever that may be!

To supply simple, clean, new items for them, in a suitable bag, not a bin bag or a discarded used ripped bag!

That they have pride, and deserve to be treated with care and compassion!

providing essential, along with a few treats, toys and cuddles to make moving that little bit easier for them!

Also, for Foster carers, social workers, kinship carers or the young people themselves, to request a pack, when needed and if needed to replace items lost etc

Phoenix Bags

for children and young people in the Looked-After Children system because every child deserves the basics to feel safe, comforted, and cared for.

For those on an emergency placement.

For when children/young people move placements/ return home.
