Plans for the future!

The National Events Programme

"We plan what we do, and do what we say"

In 2020 we appointed Catalyst 4 Change CIC to assist us with organising a series of national film, live music and arts public events.

The Summary

This initiative is made up of a series of nationwide live film, music and arts events. It was first made possible with a small part funded grant from the Edge Fund together with our own and key partner investments.

They will also be made up of FREE family-only attendance, pay-to-attend public events, topic-based conferences and seminars, often in partnership with third parties.

We plan to grow the initiative through grant funding, sponsorship, gifts-in-kind and monthly or other one-off donors.

Please Help: 'The needs of affected families and children often get lost in the equally important work of campaigning and lobbying of state institutions. We want to change that with a permanent national fund set up specifically for their needs'

The Story So Far

The very first of these events, 'Looking Back, Moving Forward', took place on 10 September 2021 marking the 18th anniversary of the death of Mikey Powell in police custody, and celebrated 6 years of the National Mikey Powell Memorial Family Fund.

The Crisis Family Support Fund

In cases of urgent need our Crisis Family Fund will generally be available during periods when the Family Support Fund rounds are closed.

Two-Way Give-Back Shop

We block-purchase services or products and offer them to affected families at heavy discounts. When families use/order services or products on offer, the vendors simply give a little back.

The Family Support Fund

Funds are periodically awarded for a range of things including contributions to funerals or memorial events and/or structures, printing, short holidays and family respite breaks and more.

Shop & Support

You can easily help raise money for the Fund simply by doing something that we all do on a regular basis… Our shopping for food, clothing, household items, holidays, travel and entertainment.

The UFFC Legacy Fund Scheme

We occasionally manage small grants on behalf of the United Families & Friends Campaign (UFFC) such as their Gift Fund or campaigning projects funding programmes.

Family Fund Pin Badges

When you purchase your badge all the proceeds of sale will go to the National Memorial Family Fund to support families that have been affected by custody deaths in the United Kingdom.

Bespoke and unique!

The National Mikey Powell Memorial Family Fund is the first permanent nationwide resource of its kind for those affected by deaths in custody, making small grants available for families and their campaign groups across the Unitrd Kingdom.

This Fund is making a real difference for families and their campaign groups that need financial support during the often long struggles for justice lasting for decades in many cases.

"To all that made it possible for the donation that I received from the Family Fund - thank you. It has been put to good use. I badly needed new memorial garden fencing before the winter arrived. it's now been delivered and put in place"

Jan Butler, Mother of Lloyd Butler

"Thanks to the Family Fund for its financial support at such a difficult time. Funds went towards buying much-needed carpets - campaigning for so long, I neglected my home. I also received a grant towards my book on Christopher's case"

Janet Alder, sister of Christopher Alder

"The grant helped to pay bills that I'd fallen behind with due to the death of my son, and not being able to work. The grant was extremely useful and enabled my family breathing space and not having the debt distraction. We are very grateful"
