Help a charity that supports officers’ children

17 December 2020

Officers are being asked to consider giving a £5 donation to a Christmas appeal from a charity that helps the children of police officers.

The St George’s Police Children Trust offers support to children who have lost either parent – whether a serving or retired officer – or whose police officer parent is unable to earn an income due to illness or injury, sustained on or off duty.

The support can include:

• A new beneficiary grant
• A weekly support allowance for each child in the family
• Seasonal gifts
• Higher education grants
• Ex gratia grants for necessary activities or items
• Special needs grants
• Driving lesson grants
• Child counselling grants
• A week’s respite at a holiday home in Harrogate and discounted rates for subsequent visits.
