Charities

The 2023 Waterfront Festival is in aid of the following charities.

RAINBOWS HOSPICE FOR CHILDREN & YOUNG PEOPLE

All children and young people deserve the chance to play, laugh, and love life. All families deserve to spend quality time together without worrying about what the future might hold and make as many memories as possible. Sadly, when children are diagnosed with a serious or terminal illness, all of this becomes so much harder. The families Rainbows support are going through the most challenging times imaginable, and they do everything they can to be there for them to support them in that journey.

Each year Rainbows provide end-of-life, palliative, and respite care for over 350 babies, children, young people and their families across the East Midlands. They help children to live their life to the fullest, right up until the moment they die, and support families through each stage of their difficult journey.

TARA’S ANGELS

Tara’s Angels are a charitable organisation that offer practical support to Nottinghamshire refugees, their residents and families who have survived domestic abuse.
