It is with a heavy heart that we have to announce the closure of You Raise Me Up due to a lack of ongoing financial support.

We have loved being able to support so many families for the last 15 years in memory of Megan and Jane Brooks.
We would like to thank everyone who has supported the charity for the past 15 years and we are so grateful to have had this opportunity for as long as we have.
We also pay tribute to all our staff, counsellors and supporters – including many local businesses – for all the hard work they have done. It has been a privilege working with everyone.
You Raise Me Up has been an incredibly special place for so many and we will treasure the experiences we have had and the wonderful families we have met.
This decision has not been easy and we have explored all viable options, but unfortunately due to a lack of sustained financial support and rising operational costs we can no longer operate.
This is an incredibly difficult time and we know how much upset this will cause. But we are immensely proud of everything You Raise Me Up has achieved. Megan and Jane’s legacy will continue beyond the organisation itself.
As of now we will no longer be operating. Our priority now is to ensure a responsible and compassionate wind-down.
Should you have any questions, please email trustees@youraisemeup.co.uk

Susannah completes Ride London for YRMU

Thank you so much to Susannah Main who completed the Ride London event to raise funds for YRMU and raised over £500

“Close friends have told me how much this charity has meant to them through very difficult times; how wonderful and caring the staff have been.  

This is my chance to help, in a small way, anyone who finds themselves in the unthinkable situation of needing this kind of help.

Despite being needed more than ever, funding for this kind of vital service is too scarce.”

Sussanah said “I’m riding 100 miles on 29th May through London and Essex as part of the RideLondon event.

I enjoy cycling but this distance is going to be a challenge – I haven’t cycled long distances for a while.”

Thank you so much Susannah. We are so grateful for your support
