Support Projects
Real-world impact, real community change. Explore the projects we’ve delivered — rooted in compassion, built on need, and driven by community.
Making It Matter
Where care meets action — one project at a time.
At The Guardians Grow Charity, we believe that support isn’t one-size-fits-all. Our projects are designed to respond to real needs, in real time, with compassion, creativity, and care. From tackling isolation and crisis to spreading joy and hope, every project is a reflection of our values—and of the community we’re proud to stand beside.
We’re always open to collaboration, sponsorship, and new ideas. Want to get involved? Pop in, give us a ring on 07518 85 1184, or donate to help us keep making a difference.
The Robin Sticker Project

Let’s show how far our robin can fly —
carrying a message of hope to someone who feels they’ve lost theirs.
Because one robin can save a life.
Imagine what we can do together.
Be a part of a murmuration of hope —
a movement flying across the world, whispering:
You are not alone.
Real Stories. Real Change.
Our Charity Projects
Check out what we’re running and what we have done previously. Please don’t hesitate to get involved!
Home Safe
Home Safe provides practical support for women, children and families rebuilding their lives after domestic violence and other crises. Working alongside partner agencies, we help people access affordable everyday essentials, clothing, toiletries, baby items and emergency supplies, ensuring support is available quickly, with dignity and compassion, when it's needed most.
If you are an agency or local authority, please get in touch for more information.
Fresh Start
Fresh Start provides affordable clothing packages for people rebuilding their lives after crisis. Whether someone is escaping domestic violence, experiencing homelessness, seeking asylum or facing other significant life challenges, we work alongside partner agencies to prepare quality clothing packages that restore dignity, build confidence and help people move forward.
A typical Fresh Start clothing package costs around £20, depending on need, with affordable donations helping keep the project sustainable for future families.
Local authorities and agencies, please get in touch for more information.
School Uniform Bank
Following requests from our community, we're delighted to be bringing back our School Uniform Bank, a project that was incredibly successful several years ago.
Based at The IRIS Project, the Uniform Bank gives people the opportunity to donate new, unused or good-quality pre-loved school uniform for families across Nuneaton and Bedworth. All donated uniform is carefully laundered and pressed before being made available to families at a very affordable cost.
The project is currently paused while we organise new collection points, and we're looking for donations and support from local businesses and our wider community to help us get it up and running again.
Santa's Guardians
For a decade, Santa's Guardians has helped ensure that children and individuals in our community are not forgotten at Christmas.
Over the past 10 years, we have provided Christmas gifts to more than 2,500 children, taking referrals each year from schools, local authorities and other organisations supporting families in need.
Santa's Guardians continues in 2026, and preparations are already underway as we begin collecting gifts and seeking support from local businesses and our wider community for Christmas.
Wishing Tree
Plate of Plenty Social Supermarket
Plate of Plenty began life in the most modest of places — a cupboard under the stairs in one of our stores — but the need within our community quickly became impossible to ignore.
What started as a small response to families struggling with the rising cost of living grew into a Social Supermarket supporting more than 250 families across the borough every week, eventually moving into The IRIS Project to meet demand.
We ran Plate of Plenty for a year and invested heavily from our own charity reserves to keep food affordable and the service accessible, but without sustainable external funding, continuing at that scale became financially impossible.
Pausing Plate of Plenty was one of the hardest decisions we have made as a charity, particularly knowing how needed it was, but we could not jeopardise the future of the wider organisation. The service remains paused while we explore whether the right funding and support could one day make Plate of Plenty financially sustainable and allow us to open its doors again.
