Community groups

Bring your club, faith group, society or local organisation together to raise vital funds for families facing childhood cancer, serious illness and bereavement. From organising an event to choosing Momentum as your charity of the year, your group can make a real difference to families in your local community.

Why support Momentum?

When a child is diagnosed with cancer or another serious illness, family life can change overnight. While the child receives medical treatment, parents, carers and siblings may also need practical help, emotional support and opportunities to spend time together away from hospital.

Momentum works alongside hospitals and community healthcare teams to provide support tailored to each family. This can include support from a Family Support Worker, counselling and creative therapies, respite breaks, practical guidance and memorable experiences together. We also continue to support families experiencing bereavement.

By fundraising for Momentum, your group can help us be there for families across Surrey, Sussex and London when they need us most.

Bring your community together

Fundraising for Momentum gives your group something positive to work towards together. Whether you organise an event, take on a challenge or support us throughout the year, everyone can contribute in a way that suits them. It can strengthen connections between members, welcome new people into your group and create a shared achievement your whole community can feel proud of.

Fundraising resources

The relationship, from the outset, has been fantastic. Staff engagement has been excellent thanks to the energy and support from the Momentum team. We’ve had some great experiences visiting various facilities, seeing for ourselves the impact of funds raised… it gives me and our employees great satisfaction knowing that our efforts make a real difference.
