What is Maypole support?

The Maypole Project provides a unique pattern of emotional psychological/social support which is based on and led by the families’ needs.  It’s unique because of the way that it’s provided; flexible and on-going, professional and understanding.

It is important to note:

Maypole support is ALWAYS FREE OF CHARGE to families.

Children who can be referred will have been diagnosed with an illness which is life-threatening or life-limiting between the ages of 0 – 18, but the family can be referred at ANY time from birth onwards (see examples of support following a child’s death below).

    Be part of something special this year and join us for a 5k or 10k run.

    Following last year’s huge success, we’re pleased to announce we have places in the Superhero 5k Fun Run in Regent’s Park on Sunday 13th May. The run is open to heroes from age 8 upwards, making it a great family run. Better still, superhero costumes are provided!!

    We also have places in the popular British Asics 10k Run on Sunday 8th July. The traffic-free route takes runners along Whitehall and the banks of the Thames. It’s a great opportunity to see London’s scenic streets like you’ve never seen them before.

    For more information about these runs or any of our other challenges, please email us at info@themaypoleproject.co.uk or call the Active Challenges team on 01689 85 15 96.
