Our partnership with Pears Foundation 

Pears Foundation has been a vital partner to School-Home Support since 2012, donating nearly £1 million over the last 13 years to get children and young people in school and ready to learn.

We’re incredibly grateful for Pears Foundation’s annual unrestricted funding. This crucial support helps to fund our essential functions, such as our finance, HR, and impact and data teams, enabling us to deliver our work with children and families around the country.

In addition, when a funding contract in Bradford ended mid-school year, Pears Foundation stepped in with a bridge funding grant. This ensured our service could continue in two local schools until the start of new contracts the following academic year. This support meant we didn’t have to lose two experienced practitioners, and critically, children continued to receive the support they needed to stay in school and succeed.

Thank you so much to Pears Foundation for being such a flexible and responsive funding partner, and ensuring we can deliver our services where they are needed most.
