What We Do

The Foundation donates grants to many charities whose aims help children and young adults in the UK.  We are always on the lookout for more brilliant organisations to support.  Our amibition is to ensure the money we give goes directly to those who need it, preferably through a specific project or activity, such as the libraries we've donated to Red Balloon Learning Centres or the Knockhatch Family Fun Day we sponsor for Young Carers.  

Below is a selection of our most recent grant recipients. For a complete list, click here.

* The Alex Roberts-Miller Foundation * Registered Charity No 1093912 * 10 Ballard Estate, Swanage, Dorset BH19 1QZ *

MYTIME Young Carers offers tailor-made support for children and young adults who care for a family member.  Whether it's by providing fun and enriching activity days to give young carers a break from their responsibilities, helping schools to identify and better support young carers in their education, or perhaps helping young carers to find their way into further education or employment, MYTIME takes the time to recognise and meet the needs of Young Carers in Dorset.

Mosaic Family Support provides support and therapy for bereaved children.  Since it was founded in 2007, Mosaic have helped many children through the incredibly difficult time of losing a loved one.  They offer one-to-one sessions, activity days, residential weekends and social events.     

Ruby's Fund supports children with complex Special Educational Needs and Disabilities and their families and carers in Cheshire, not just on site at their dedicated centre but also with their mobile sensory bus.  They also work with schools to help educate children about emotional well-being and building self-esteem.

Based in Weymouth, Dorset, The Horse Course specialises in helping people with complex needs and challenges through a broad range of equine-assisted programmes.  Their incredible work is nothing less than life-changing as they aim to guide individuals to greater self belief, healthy relationships and better engagement with their education.
