The Lullaby Trust is a charity that saves babies’ lives and supports bereaved families. Around 3 babies a week still die from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and we are committed to bringing that number down to zero. Through educating parents on how they can reduce the risk of SIDS and investing over £12 million in research, we have played a key role in reducing the number of babies who die from SIDS by 82%, saving the lives of more than 29,000 babies. Each year we train thousands of health professionals to support parents in sleeping their baby safely. We campaign tirelessly to raise awareness of SIDS and ensure our life saving advice reaches all parents. The Lullaby Trust supports bereaved families, through our helpline and befriending scheme. Our work with the NHS to provide a Care of Next Infant Programme (CONI) offers a lifeline to bereaved families expecting a new baby.

Radio Tay’s Cash for Kids responds to the needs of local children living within Tayside and Fife . We support children aged 0-18 who are disabled, disadvantaged or suffering from abuse or neglect, through our grant giving process. Grants awarded go towards buying specialist equipment for children to enhance their quality of life. They are also given to children’s charities and organisations to help them undertake projects and new initiatives or to ensure that much needed services can continue to provide essential care and support. All the money raised on behalf of Cash for Kids stays in the area it was raised in providing a helping hand when and where it is needed most.

Spectrum provides an after school club, holiday playscheme and a youth club for children and young people with an ASD. Autism is a lifelong developmental disorder that affects how a person communicates with and relates to, other people and the world around them. At Spectrum we recognise the importance of play to a child's overall development, children with an ASD face many challenges learning how to play and socialise. We provide a welcoming, happy and safe environment where children can benefit from staff that are familiar with their need for structure and routine within play.
