Helping actor

strong through
life's uncertainty

Helping actor families
Our industry impacts thousands of children—from single dads juggling work and childcare to mums between roles struggling to keep the home warm. Too often, industry challenges affect children’s wellbeing and future opportunities.
Actors rely on non-performing jobs to make ends meet

Children in our community are struggling

Demand for our support is rapidly increasing and right now we can’t reach every family who needs us. By turning the spotlight on children and supporting our vital work, you can give them the childhood they deserve.

Your donnation can help support:

£50 funds a music exam for a child in financial hardship

£100 buys school uniform for a child in temporary housing

£300 helps a child continue swimming lessons after fleeing violence

£500 covers therapy for a child with Down syndrome or cerebral palsy

£2,500 funds a special needs assessment for a child falling behind at school

CRISIS

“The crisis grant helped us breathe. We could focus on our baby’s recovery and my partner’s health without the panic of unpaid bills hanging over us.”

SCHOOL COSTS

“I was doing everything I could to stay afloat — taking last-minute jobs, borrowing where I could. But the school costs were constant and there was no flexibility. The grant from ACT came at just the right time.”
