We were stood on a mud track in Southern Romania with our three small kids. Amongst the huge pile of rubbish and stray dogs, were children, the same age as ours. These little ones had no shoes, little clothing and were looking through the huge pile of rubbish. Our two older kids played on the path with a few of the local kids as we held our youngest daughters chubby, well-fed hand. An uncomfortable question started to form… “ How can this be their story?”

People can only care about the things they know about

We believe everyone has something to offer the world and as Big Love grows we see partnerships as key to identifying needs we will help facilitate. For us it started on a mud track in Romania, once we knew about it, we cared about it; once we cared about it, we had to do something about it. In 2019 we launched Big Love, a brand new charity that aims to re-write the stories of families and individuals caught in a seemingly never ending cycle of poverty and hopelessness.
As Big Love grows it's our mission for every child, family or individual we encounter to feel loved, valued and accepted with a sense of purpose. Whether that's through intentional conversations or projects being delivered, we ultimately want for everyone to feel they have a place of belonging and acceptance at the ever growing table.
As Big Love continues to flourish, our unwavering mission is to fill every child, family, and individual we encounter with an abundance of love, value, and a profound sense of purpose. Whether it's through heartfelt conversations or the delivery of transformative projects, we aspire for all to find their place at the ever-expanding table of belonging and acceptance. Together, we're creating a future brimming with hope and the knowledge that everyone has a seat at this ever-growing table.
