Timeout are a family run organisation, established with the aim of making a real difference to the lives of children with complex needs. We are a family run-organisation and we continue to create this family culture throughout the organisation and teams. Timeout Homes was created in 2004 with the opening of one home and the aim of helping at least one child. Since then, Timeout has only continued to grow and develop over the years to where we are now. We now currently have 18 care homes open across Greater Manchester, Lancashire, and West Yorkshire and have the fantastic opportunity to help more children.

The Youth Endowment Fund was established in March 2019 by children’s charity Impetus, with a £200m endowment and 10-year mandate from the Home Office. We’re here to prevent children and young people becoming involved in violence. We do this by finding out what works and building a movement to put this knowledge into practice. The YEF is part of the What Works Network, an initiative to improve the way government and other public sector organisations create, share and use high quality evidence in decision-making.
