Global’ s Make some Noise!

Sandy Bear are absolutely delighted to have been awarded a grant from Global’ s Make Some Noise to enable us to reach more children, young people and families in the lead up to and following a bereavement within our South Wales region.

Over the next two years, their support will enable us to put resources into those areas where we know there are gaps in provision and really make a difference to those who most need us, when they most need it.

Our growing team of volunteers and staff work tirelessly to ensure that no child grieves alone, and that they can work with us through 1:1 and peer support groups to understand and work through their emotions; developing personal resilience and positive memory making.

We know the impact of our work and are hugely thankful that the team at Global can see this also.

Lee Barnett, our CEO says: ‘Since joining Sandy Bear I have never cried so much within a role when hearing from those we support and what they have experienced. Equally, I have never laughed so much, nor been so heartened to see the positive impact that our work with young people and families is able to achieve’

Thank you so much to Global for choosing to support us, we are excited about this partnership and working with you over the next two years.
