TTA supports the Lighthouse Charity.
Lighthouse Charity provides a number of free, confidential resources to seek support: a 24/7 helpline covering all aspects of wellbeing; a live web chat; a self-support app; a text HARDHAT service providing immediate one-to-one support; and Lighthouse Beacons, volunteer support groups around the UK and Ireland. For every £1 of charitable spend, the charity delivers £10.06 in social value. The charity also provides urgent financial support – including for emergency food shops, household energy bills, household goods, counselling sessions and suicide awareness courses. In addition, Lighthouse’s Wellbeing Academy includes a number of free courses on health and wellbeing topics suited to diverse learning styles.
Find out moreThe Tile Association's nominated charity is Children Today.
Founded in 1994, Children Today was created to help children and young people with disabilities up to the age of 25 across the UK by providing specialised equipment to help offer an improved quality of life.
Often children and young people with disabilities remain excluded from activities and a lifestyle which some people may take for granted. We believe that all children and young people should be able to live as independently as possible, have access to everyday activities and reach their full potential.
The specialist equipment Children Today provide is designed to improve and enhance the lives of children and young people with disabilities, helping them to become as independent as possible, reduce social isolation and improve physical and mental wellbeing.
Your support enables Children Today to enhance quality of lives. Find out more about Children Today, including meeting more of the children we have helped through the donations you give and how you can get involved by visiting www.childrentoday.org.uk.
Since 2010, TTA have raised over £75,000 for this worthwhile cause, helping to improve the children's lives as well as their families' lives.
