Guy's Gift

Who we are

Guy’s Gift supports children, young people and families in Coventry and Warwickshire who are experiencing bereavement, loss and change. Our work is rooted in compassion, understanding and the belief that every child deserves support during difficult times.

We provide a range of services designed to help children and young people process their experiences in a safe and supportive environment. Our approach is centred on building resilience, promoting wellbeing and ensuring families feel listened to and supported.

We are a small, dedicated team working closely with a valued network of volunteers who play a vital role in delivering our services. We aim to create a supportive and inclusive working environment where staff and volunteers feel respected, valued and connected to our mission.

At Guy’s Gift, we are committed to safeguarding, equality and inclusion, and to making a positive difference in the lives of the children and families we support.
