Our Stories
At the Samantha Sykes Foundation trust, we have been fighting child sexual exploitation and helping young people since 2014. We aim to help young people who are either victims or at high risk of child sexual exploitation, as well as young people who are in the care of the local authority or who are care leavers to reach their full potential and help rebuild their lives. We currently help, on average, 200 young people every year. Click below to learn more about a few of the people we have helped.

Every year we hold our well-known butterfly ball to raise funds to support our work.
THE SANCTUARY PROJECT
We helped a young care leaver secure his first job in collaboration with the Sanctuary Project.
SANNA MAHMOOD
Sanna Mahmood, as a care leaver, has no family support, but she is strong and it has been a privilege to help her.
CHANGE A LIFE TODAY
As long as young people, either in the local authority care system or care leavers are disadvantaged and young people remain victims of child sexual exploitation, missed opportunities, injustice & violence persist. While this is happening, none of us can truly rest. It doesn’t take much to change a life. Get in touch with the Samantha Sykes Foundation today and start making the difference.
