Start the New Year by showing children in care that they matter
For most children, the New Year brings new hopes, fresh possibilities and exciting things to look forward to. But for around 35,000 children across the UK 2025 will mean something very different: they will enter the care system because their home is unsafe or unable to meet their needs.
Many of these children will move between placements frequently, and shockingly, their belongings are often carried in black bin bags - a practice that often leaves lasting effects on their self-esteem and sense of worth.
At Madlug, we care. We believe every child in care has huge worth, huge value and deserves to move with dignity.
Make 2025 a Year of Purpose
This year, we’re inviting you to join us in a simple but powerful way: Subscribe to Give One Bag a Month
By joining our subscription service, you’ll give one travel bag every month to an incredible child in care. You’ll be showing them they’re cared for and not forgotten, because no child should carry their life in a bin bag.
With an ongoing subscription you will receive a 'Value Worth Dignity Tote' worth £14.99 as a thank you.
Together, we can make 2025 a year of meaningful impact for children in care.
