Variety The Children's Charity

Variety, formerly Variety Club, delivers practical services to children and young people aged 0 to 19 affected by disability, disadvantage and ill health across the UK.

We cannot make children better - what we can do is improve the quality of their lives by engendering independence, freedom and fun thus boosting their psychological and emotional wellbeing. We have supported over 800,000 children and young people during our 65 years of service. By helping these children, we also help the parents, siblings, carers, schools and organisations that shape their early years.

Variety provides both practical help including Variety Sunshine Coaches, Variety Wheelchairs and specialist equipment through our grants programmes, as well as creating memorable childhood experiences in our Variety at Work scheme.

Variety supports children's hospitals, hospices, schools and youth organisations, along with supporting children individually by providing life changing grants and equipment.
