Partnership with Starlight Children's Foundation Charity

We're so excited to announce our partnership with Starlight Children's Foundation. Starlight believes in the power of play to help make the experience of illness and treatment easier for children and their families which ties in perfectly with BEAM ACADEMY's mission. Apart from offering free online and in-person classes to the children and their families, a percentage of our profits will be going to Starlight to help support their important work. 

Starlights mission is to use the power of play to make the experience of illness and treatment better for children and their families. Childhood is a crucial time in everyone’s development and, when illness intervenes, it’s of critical importance to protect it.

It’s when we begin to discover the things that shape our nature and start to acquire the knowledge that makes us who we are. It is a precious rite of passage in the life of every human being. Childhood is also typically a time of positivity, no matter what life brings our way. Those golden years that we cherish should be as carefree, fun, and unconditional as possible for every child. It’s every child’s time to play.

At Starlight, they are passionate about protecting this time of play. Championing its importance and defending every child’s right to it. Our passion takes us to the bedsides of some of the most poorly children in the UK. In hospital, often without hope of leaving. We use the power of play to create a sense of escape from the difficult reality in which these children find themselves. To delight and distract. To entertain and enlighten. But, most of all, to restore a smile to their faces. Making moments of light when the day is at its darkest.

Play is important. Play is invaluable. Play is vital.
