EPIC Charity Bristol

The EPIC Charity - Bristol offers small grants of up to £500 to Bristol's care-experienced children and young people.

Why is EPIC needed?

When a child or young person comes into care, the Local Authority takes on the parental responsibility for them. Their primary responsibilities include ensuring the child or young person has a place to live and be cared for, access to education and healthcare, and to be kept safe from any harm.

We know the council is fully committed to this cohort of children and young people. However the growing financial pressures they face, which are mirrored nationwide, mean that the ‘added extras’ of access to hobbies, opportunities and experiences is increasingly rare. EPIC was set up to ensure this cohort are not further disadvantaged from their peers through lack of access to opportunities which can make all the difference to their lives.
