Helping make

Our Foundation will help children, young people and families throughout our vast footprint to enhance the Health Visitor and School Nursing services we provide, to ensure the children, young people and families who access these services have a Great Start in Life.

We endeavour to actively fundraise through events, projects, appeals and donations to support the children, young people and their families across the HDFT Footprint. By supporting the Great Start in Life Foundation, you can make a difference to the lives of children and young people across County Durham, Cumberland, Darlington, Gateshead, Middlesbrough, Northumberland, North Yorkshire, Stockton-on-Tees, Sunderland, Wakefield and Westmorland-in-Furness.
