Giving
ARK keeps overheads to a minimum through recruiting volunteers and sharing resources with other organisations, however, we still need to raise funds to provide an effective service. ARK currently costs £30,000 a year to run and we are totally reliant on charitable donations.
Your donations help us to help those in our community. We do not receive any funding from local or national authorities so every penny you donate goes towards helping others. Thank you
Delivering Kindness to our community
Supporting and
empowering
people
through
acts of kindness
After 15 years, we have sadly made the decision to close ARK Eastleigh. As you can imagine, this has been an incredibly difficult decision, but ultimately, we feel it is the right one. We are proud to have supported a number of people across the Eastleigh area, and are confident that they will continue to be supported by other trusted organisations. ARK Eastleigh will be closing at the end of December 2023.
