Your generosity makes lasting change possible

Every day, children, families and women rebuilding their lives after trauma turn to PACT for specialist support, helping them feel safer, strengthen relationships and move forward with confidence. 

When a child is struggling after experiencing domestic abuse, when an adoptive family faces challenges that threaten stability, or when a woman needs support to recover from trauma, expert help can make all the difference. 

At PACT, that support is always free, accessible and grounded in evidence-based practice. We believe that no-one should be prevented from getting the help they need because of their financial circumstances. 

But providing expert support comes at a cost. 

That’s why your generosity matters. 

Every donation helps fund the specialist services that enable children, families and women to access life-changing support when they need it most. Support that helps families stay strong, relationships heal and people build safer, more hopeful futures. 

Demand for these services continues, and we need your help to ensure that everyone who turns to PACT can access the support they need. 

This summer, your donation can help provide expert care, guidance and therapeutic support to people facing some of life’s most difficult challenges. 

Together, we can ensure that more children, families and women find the safety, stability and support they deserve. 

Please donate today and help make lasting change possible.

After experiencing domestic abuse, Caitlin* and her children rebuilt confidence, connection and hope through BB4K.


Helping children bounce back from trauma 

Our Bounce Back 4 Kids (BB4K) programme supports children and families recovering from domestic abuse, helping them understand their emotions, rebuild confidence and feel safe again.

Because even when the abuse has stopped, the impact of trauma doesn’t simply disappear. 

As one parent shared: 

“Spending dedicated time together through the programme and using the strategies at home has helped us feel closer as a family… A lot more feels possible than it did before and I feel hopeful about the future.” 

PACT supported more than 430 children last year and this year, due to growing demand, we’re expanding BB4K to reach more families across our communities. But we can’t do it without you.

Adam* and Jan* built a thriving adoptive family with ongoing specialist support, training and community with PACT.


Supporting our adoptive families for life

Through PACT’s range of in-house support we are committed to meeting the needs of our adoptive families, at any stage, for life.

Through advice, training, workshops, support groups and activities we meet families and children where they are. 

Adopter Adam said:

“Contacting PACT for support is easy and you are quickly put in touch with the right team to assist with your query to get advice or progress any support you need.”

Last year PACT supported over 200 children and families just like Adam and Jan’s across its range of trauma recovery activities.

With your generous help we can support every one of our families that need us.

Laura* escaped abuse and receives ongoing support from Alana House to rebuild safety and recover from trauma.


Empowering women to create positive change


The Alana House team bring their extensive experience and knowledge and wide range of support help each woman navigating multiple disadvantages to a brighter future.

Alana House attendee Melanie told us:

“It is hard to describe the amount of support [my support worker] has given me over the past year. I had a deep mistrust of professionals when first engaging with Alana House and it is to [her] credit that she is one of the few professionals that I trust.”  

With your support we can help even more women access expert trauma-informed support.

Last year 218 women received support from Alana House and 89% recorded a positive improvement across all needs. Help us turn our expert support into lasting change.
