Tunstall Jubilee Foundation
About This Funder
The Tunstall Jubilee Foundation champions the ambitions and wellbeing of care-experienced children and young people, transforming challenges of local authority care into pathways for education, independence, and thriving futures. Rooted in fostering, adoption, and therapeutic child care expertise, its values emphasize compassion, ambition, sustainable partnerships, and long-term impact through innovative, trauma-informed interventions. It believes enduring change arises from tangible, person-centred support that builds resilience, counters instability, and empowers grassroots organizations delivering direct benefits via collaborative, relationship-driven grantmaking focused on life-changing opportunities.
It prioritizes projects supporting care leavers aged 16-25 transitioning to independent living, including educational bursaries for further education and higher education access, vocational training and employment training programs addressing youth unemployment barriers, housing support and homelessness prevention through accommodation assistance and life skills workshops, wellbeing initiatives encompassing mental health counselling, therapeutic activities, and peer support groups for trauma recovery, and capacity building for small organizations serving children in care with complex needs from family breakdown or neglect. Funded interventions include direct beneficiary support like mentoring and befriending for social isolation, after-school clubs and outreach for at-risk youth, early intervention training to prevent exclusion, and community-led services fostering personal development, confidence, and family reconnection for young people facing poverty, educational disadvantage, or care system uncertainties.
Exclusions encompass non-charitable activities, indirect overheads without beneficiary linkage, or projects lacking direct care-experienced focus; it avoids short-term transactional aid favoring sustained relationships instead. Distinctive for its fostering sector heritage, it targets grassroots charities with lived experience leadership serving care leavers and in-care youth across England and Wales communities, prioritizing innovative, evidence-based models like therapeutic fostering transitions, preventative independent living support, and holistic approaches valuing ambition over dependency in vulnerable young lives.
