Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity enables families who have a child with a life-threatening or terminal illness to make the most of time together, providing expert, practical and emotional support, where they need it for as long as it is needed. For families living with childhood illness, time is everything. Right now, there are too many families coping alone with no support, no time to think, no time to make memories and no time for each other. We believe that no family should go through this alone, so we are here to change that.

Awel Aman Tawe is a pioneering community energy charity working to tackle the climate emergency while strengthening community resilience. Founded in 1998, we have developed two of the largest renewable energy co-operatives in Wales – Awel Co-op (wind) and Egni Co-op (solar and smart local energy systems).

We are entering an exciting and pivotal phase. Alongside our established renewable energy assets, we are developing new infrastructure, including a solar farm and battery storage project (one of the UK’s first “tribrid” systems).

We are also expanding our portfolio of community, education and enterprise activities. As of end 2025, AAT and group companies have a combined balance sheet of more than £19m and turnover of £4m

Our work spans multiple legal and operational structures, including a charity, community benefit societies (co-ops), trading activity and joint ventures. Hwb y Gors, our low-carbon arts and enterprise centre, is a key part of our growing earned income and community development.
