Your kindness keeps small beginnings growing.
Our mission
Start Small Sussex is a parent-led, volunteer-run community supporting families of children with complex needs.We build connection, resilience, and hope — one family, one walk, one conversation at a time.Our work exists thanks to people, organisations, and funders who believe in what we do.By partnering with us, you help create spaces where families feel less isolated and more supported.
Community & Corporate Partners
Your support could look like:
• Sponsoring an inclusive event
• Offering accessible space for our sessions
• Providing in-kind support (refreshments, printing, sensory toys)
If you’re a local business, charity, or community group, we’d love to work with you.
Grant & Trust Funding
We welcome partnerships with funders who share our values of inclusion, early intervention, and community wellbeing.
Funding helps us cover venue hire, equipment, accessibility adaptations, and professional facilitation.
We provide full transparency on how funds are used and report on impact with honesty and heart.
Private Giving & Donations
Every contribution — from one-off gifts to long-term sponsorships — helps us sustain our grassroots work.
Your generosity helps families access inclusive play, peer support, and advocacy when they need it most.
