Gulnaz – Firvale Community Hub
Key Fund has stood shoulder to shoulder with our hub and taken us to the next level.
Read MorePatrick – The Bridge Homelessness to Hope
Homelessness is not the issue; we’re fighting depression, mental health and alcohol misuse. I’ve got a guy now, just out of jail, he’s been given a place with a bed and that’s it. He came to me and said all his friends were out on the streets; he didn’t have any on-going support. For me, […]

Its vulnerable groups we hope to access – people who need a bit of support, that’s what we’re here for.
Read MoreStarr – CAST
They supported me with my anger issues basically, and taught me to control and deal with everything. They’ve shown me the bright side of having autism, not the dark side of it.

Read MorePaul – JCP Community Farm
We dreamt about a community-based farm where James could grow old with other adults with special needs. But our only option was to spend the rest of our lives trying to create it.

We spoke to the bank and they weren’t able to help us. Without the support of Key Fund, we wouldn’t have been in this position to get this amazing community building.
Read MoreGemma – Key Fund
The Key Fund is more than just a job, clocking in and clocking out day-after-day for your pay, it’s about feeding the soul and enabling real positive change.
Read MoreAlisa – The Welcome Inn
We worked every Bank Holiday and on Saturdays, because the need was consistent. I thought I needed to get a food parcel to this lady that day. It transpired, she lived in a little flat, hidden away at the end of a cul-de-sac, so nobody would walk past. She had big posters in the window […]
