What is HeartNotes?
Apart of Me game has helped over 170,000 children and young people with their grief. We need your help to continue combating the epidemic of loneliness among bereaved young people by funding HeartNotes - a new feature that provides comfort, connection, and peer-to-peer support, ensuring no young person faces grief alone.
HeartNote can be thought of as a "message in a Bottle for grieving hearts" - each one carefully crafted by young people with lived experience to provide comfort and connection.

How will your donation help?
We know traditional grief services aren't accessible to all and that's why this game is so important. It removes barriers like cost, stigma, and accessibility, and the HeartNotes feature will do even more.
This campaign is raising funds so that Apart of Me can continue to be a lifeline for the young people who need it, and to build this new feature - HeartNotes - that our users have been asking us for.
​
Every £1000 donated releases £500 in matched funding! (Up to £10,000)
