Mums In Need is a Sheffield based charity that works with mums who have left emotionally abusive relationships and are looking for support to rebuild their lives. We are searching for more fundraisers so that we can support more mums who need our help.

Mums In Need are a small charity based in Sheffield. We support mums who have left emotionally abusive relationships and are looking for support to rebuild their lives.

We offer our Mins (mums) a comprehensive package of support for as long as they need it. The types of support we provide can include counselling, 1:1 support sessions, legal support, financial advice, self-esteem and stress management workshops, yoga and other well-being sessions and peer support groups.

The Mums In Need team are aiming to work together throughout 2023 to raise £20,000.

BUT we need your help!

Could you help us to reach fundraising goal by joining us on our fundraising efforts? You can set up your own fundraiser and link it to ours. Simply follow the link and then click the orange 'start fundraising' button.

You can even work collectively with your network to raise funds for MIN together. The more fundraisers that we have, the more chance we will have to make our fundraising target.

It's up to you how you do it - get creative and have some fun.
Here are some ideas for you to consider:
*Skydive *Host a quiz night
*Run or walk 5K *Sell items on Vinted and donate the proceeds
*Host a bake sale *quit bad habits

We are now able to provide our fundraisers with a FREE fundraising T-shirt. Contact us today to arrange this.

Together, we can make a bigger impact on the lives of the families that we support.
*if 5 people/groups aim to raise £2023 over the year, we would raise over £10,000.
*If 10 people/groups aim to raise £2023 over the year, we would raise over £20,000.
This amount of money would make a huge difference to our service delivery, and how many mums we can support.

The need for our services continually increases. We currently have a waiting list of 45 with an approximate waiting time of up to 6 months. With your help, we would be able to support more families, and reduce the amount of time that they have to wait to access our services. This will really benefit the mums who contact us and need our support NOW.

For every £10,000 we would be able to support 16 families with a 1:1 caseworker who will be able to provide them with emotional support, but will also give them access to sessions such as 1:1 counselling, trauma therapy, therapeutic sessions, and peer groups. We also help with legal support for repeated court applications.

If you would like to take part in fundraising, we would love to know about your efforts, and can share these on our website and social media.
