Life Moments Fund​​

This multi-year grant programme delivers significant funding to charities committed to driving change for people during life’s toughest moments.

Centrepoint: Bright Futures Initiative

At the cardfactory Foundation, we believe in the power of young people to overcome adversity and build brighter futures. That’s why we’ve created the Life Moments Fund, a dedicated initiative focused on supporting individuals aged 16-25 during life’s most challenging moments.



We are proud to partner with Centrepoint, a leading charity in the fight against youth homelessness, to deliver this vital support. 

The three-year partnership will raise £1.5 million to directly fund transformational Psychologically Informed Environments (PIE) work, which offers tailored support to help homeless young people. Our partnership will have a profound impact, reaching over 31,000 young people and empowering them to: 

  • Improve their emotional well-being and build confidence.
  • Develop stronger relationships and support networks.
  • Work towards achieving stable homes and independent lives.

Our Three-Year Commitment

Through the Life Moments Fund, we are investing in a comprehensive program designed to create lasting change in the lives of vulnerable young people. Over the next three years, our funding will support several key areas:

  • Specialist Therapy: Providing access to 1-2-1 psychological support for young people with complex needs, helping them to heal from trauma and build emotional stability.

  • Specialised Support Workers: Training Centrepoint staff to provide trauma-informed care, ensuring young people receive the guidance and support they need to thrive.
  • Welcoming and Safe Environments: Transforming hostels into nurturing homes, creating a sense of belonging and security for young residents.

  • Celebrating Life Moments: Ensuring young people can experience the joy of celebration, fostering positive relationships and creating lasting memories.

“At cardfactory Foundation, we are committed to creating positive change in our communities. The Life Moments Fund, in partnership with Centrepoint, represents our dedication to empowering young people and providing them with the tools and support they need to navigate life’s challenges and build a brighter future.”

Brian, Chair of the cardfactory Foundation
