More about Hopscotch:

Hopscotch has spent 25 years supporting young carers and children in challenging circumstances across Scotland by offering them much-needed respite breaks. These experiences allow children who have had to grow up too fast to escape daily pressures, connect with others facing similar situations, make friends, and create memories that remind them they are not alone. For many, this is a chance to experience the joy and freedom of childhood, which they often miss out on due to family caregiving responsibilities.

If you'd like to support Hopscotch with a donation, head to the charity's Wonderful profile page, safe in the knowledge that every penny you raise will reach the charity with no deductions or fees whatsoever.
