Driving change through campaigns

Our campaigns are at the forefront of driving positive change for families and babies.

From raising awareness about mental health challenges to advocating for policies that contribute to breaking the cycle of domestic abuse, each campaign is a powerful step towards a brighter future.

We collaborate with communities, experts, and stakeholders to amplify our impact and create lasting solutions.

Safe for Christmas, Secure for Life ​2025

Christmas should be filled with joy, and new memories. Yet for many families affected by domestic abuse, it can increase feelings of isolation, fear and loneliness.  

By donating to our Big Give campaign, you can help provide a baby with the first Christmas they deserve; one of safety, support and hope.  

A Decade of For Baby's Sake 2025

This year marks a huge milestone for The For Baby’s Sake Trust as we celebrate 10 years of delivering For Baby’s Sake: our pioneering, whole-family approach to breaking cycles of domestic abuse. 

So, this is Christmas 2024

For families impacted by domestic abuse, the festive season can feel anything but joyful. As we celebrate in warmth and comfort, many babies and children look around and wonder, “So, this is Christmas?” – a time overshadowed by fear, isolation, and uncertainty. 

Together, we can give babies the gift of safety, showing them that Christmas can be filled with love and security, not fear

Baby Steps 2024

Get those feet moving and join Baby Steps, our match-funded fundraising campaign to support The For Baby’s Sake Trust in raising vital funds to help break cycles of domestic abuse and give babies the best start in life

The Great Big Walk for Herts 2024 will take place on September 28th, featuring a 13-mile walk to raise funds for 12 local charities supporting children from birth to young adulthood.

Children Keep the Score 2024

During major football tournaments like the Euros, incidents of domestic abuse rise.

By addressing the relationship between football and domestic abuse and promoting positive behaviours, Children Keep the Score aims to create a safer environment for families during the Euros 2024 and beyond.

General Election Policy Calls 2024

1 in 5 babies in the UK grow up in a household where there is domestic abuse.

Experiencing domestic abuse during the first 1001 days of a baby’s life profoundly affects their emotional and physical development. Moreover, children who witness domestic abuse are at a higher risk of perpetuating or experiencing domestic abuse in their adult lives.

Let’s make breaking the cycle of domestic abuse a top priority for the next government, giving the next generation the best start in life.

Mental Health Awareness Week 2024

Our Healing Starts Here campaign is part of Big Give’s Kind²Mind initiative. During Mental Health Awareness Week (May 13 – 19 2024) , we’re spotlighting the critical link between mental health and domestic abuse. 

Donations made through Kind2Mind are generously doubled by Big Give, so support goes twice as far. 

Maternal Health Matters 2024

We’re proud to have partnered with incredible organisations – like the Institute of Health Visiting, Best Beginnings and St. Michaels Fellowship – during our campaign to advocate for practical action to ensure every parent feels safe, heard and supported.

Beyond this campaign, we’re continuing to call for the use of our Emotional Safety Plans in every Maternity Unit across the country to ensure the emotional safety of parents and professionals.
