Christmas Facebook Fundraiser now on!

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

Please join us in supporting our charity? We are raising money for You Raise Me Up and your contribution will make an impact.
Whether you want to give instead of sending cards or in memory of loved one, whether you donate a lot or a little it all makes a difference.
Facebook does not make charges for your donations so all the money goes direct to the Charity.
Thank you for your support.

The‘You Raise Me Up’ charity was founded in June 2011 with the sole purpose of raising funds to support families who have suffered the loss of a child between the ages of 16 and 25.
Its so sad that the need is there but we are encouraged and comforted to know that the charity has helped numerous families who have struggled not only with the funeral costs, but through the charity’s counselling service, we offer emotional support as they re-build their lives.
We offer help to local families and families further afield but without your generous support and donations this would not be possible. There simply is no other help of this kind available to bereaved families.
