About us
Suffolk #WeMatter has been operating for one year and is a small charity based in Ipswich and covering the Ipswich and East Suffolk area at present. The charity is focused on supporting children and young people who are living with an adult with a mental health condition. The charity is supported by the Ipswich Connect programme and receives grants form various local charitable organisations.
What will offer you
The Trustees are both involved and determined in ensuring that children and young people are well supported and that providers are equipped and enabled to develop that process for families. We currently work with a range of schools and have provided training for childrens services and other local groups. We expect our website to be launched by January 2026 and have already developed a training programme and materials to support the process for children and young people.
