People's Postcode Lottery

The People’s Postcode Community Fund

We want to say a big thank you to the People’s Postcode Community Fund for their generous funding to help Trekstock increase the reach of services to our beneficiaries.

The People’s Postcode Community Fund is supported by players of The People’s Postcode Lottery, and this generous funding will go towards our vital programmes to support the mental health of young adults living with and beyond cancer.

With this funding, we can continue efficiently adapting to deliver tailored online support programmes, to new and existing beneficiaries around the UK, safely into their own homes. Our online support services, such as group exercise sessions and Community support group, will result in an immediate positive physical, emotional and social impact on its beneficiaries.

This project has been made possible by an award from Postcode Community Trust, a grant-giving charity funded entirely by players of People’s Postcode Lottery.
