We can support you during this challenging time
Whether it's big or small, your donations make all the difference
From boiler break downs to life's most unexpected moments, we are there for our travel industry colleagues and their families when they need us most
Sometimes it only takes a small change in circumstance to tip the balance and turn a manageable situation into an unmanageable one.
We award financial grants to help colleagues suffering real financial hardship caused by life-changing medical conditions, bereavement, disability, domestic violence and everything in between.
From wheelchairs to emergency repairs, to help with essential daily living costs such as food and utility bills - nothing is too big or too small for us to consider.
