Foundation For Children

Impact

We have almost 120 Bright Spaces in England and Scotland which are designed and furnished to feel safe and calm, with a range of play and relaxation resources for children to enjoy, including books, games, art and craft materials, and toys. They are created and maintained in partnership with specialist organisations delivering support to children and families.

In our 2026 Bright Space Partner Impact Survey, all Bright Space partners said their Bright Spaces are impactful, with 85% stating their Bright Spaces have a ‘major impact’.

“We are blown away by the generosity and compassion the whole team has shown towards the children and families we work with.

We’ve been marvelling at the resources we now have to support our work, and at the difference the transformation has made to how the room feels. It’s warmer, calmer and more inviting, and a space we’re so proud to welcome children into.

The children and young people that have used the room already have been thrilled with what’s available. Hearing their excitement as they explore the room and discover new things has been truly magical to witness.

It’s hard to find words that fully express our gratitude. The team has been incredible. Who would have thought that all those steps could lead to such a transformation, with a lasting impact on children and families for years to come?" Director of Your Space Foundation, one of our Bright Space partners.
