The Southend Sunflower Trust is a registered charity that primarily provides financial assistance for children with special needs, who live within the borough of Southend on Sea in Essex.
By helping with funding for equipment, social and health care, education and personal development, we endeavour to enable these children to reach their individual potential.
Working on an annual basis, the trust’s intent is to donate the maximum available finance. We do this by fund raising events and ticket sales. In association with Scope, we are looking to create a wider awareness of our trust and welcome any interest from anyone wishing to volunteer their time.
