To achieve maximum effect, we're happy to pool our resources wherever practical. Our Big Impact Programmes are co-funded with several other organisations in order to address some of SHINE's key priorities on a grand scale and at a rapid pace. Ultimately, our ambition is that they will attract sufficient public funding to be rolled out across the country, thereby helping many more children together than we could hope to achieve by ourselves.
