We are The Hubb Foundation: an independent and socially-inclusive charity dedicated to supporting families and communities in creating happy, healthy school holidays.
Through a number of different projects, we work with a broad range of businesses and organisations across Stoke-on-Trent to give disadvantaged children and their families the opportunity to access much-needed free provision.
The Hubb Foundation, based in Stoke-on-Trent, is a charity focused on providing holiday activities for vulnerable children. Our work spans from community projects like our slow-cooker initiative to facilitating smooth transitions between educational stages with Opportunity Area funding.
A key aspect of the Hubb Foundation’s mission statement is ‘developing physical, mental and emotional wellbeing while positively affecting social change’. In practice, the holistic approach described for confronting real and longstanding issues for disadvantaged children ensures that each child can tackle their academic-based term-time with the support mechanism of a fulfilling and supportive school holiday period.
Since 2018, through offering complimentary meals and engaging activities to all participants in our holiday programs, we've laid the groundwork for thousands of children to maximize their academic potential. This, in turn, prepares them for a brighter future ahead.
Carol founded the Hubb Foundation in 2018, which continues to expand to help more and more families and extend the range of support it offers to young people. She is heavily involved in the local community, for instance acting as co-chair of the ‘Opportunity Area’ board, and has been awarded two honory doctorates, from Keele University & Staffordshire University.
“To make sustainable improvements to the aspirations, achievements, and life skills of young people and families – making a real impact upon their lives irrespective of circumstance.
We aim to support our community by developing physical, mental and emotional wellbeing while positively affecting social change and creating happy memories.”
