MK Melting Pot is a dynamic not-for-profit organisation dedicated to uplifting young people, individuals, and families through providing essential resources, training, and empowering activities. We work tirelessly to provide relief and improve social connections among diverse and disadvantaged communities in Milton Keynes.

As winter approaches, we at MK Melting Pot are launching a fundraising campaign to raise £5,000. These funds will help us provide essential food packages, household necessities, and support to families in crisis. With your help, we can continue offering vital services and ensure MK Melting Pot remains a lifeline to those in need during the difficult months ahead.

Last winter, three families known to MK Melting Pot experienced loss through suicide. These heartbreaking events reflect a growing crisis, with rising suicide rates in Milton Keynes. In 2021 alone, there were 38 recorded suicides—a sharp increase from 26 the previous year. Many of these tragedies are tied to the pressures of the cost-of-living crisis, and we know that this winter will bring even greater challenges for the families we support.

Every donation helps us continue our vital work, which has already touched the lives of over 150 people and families by reducing food poverty, combating loneliness, and promoting mental wellbeing through our social space.
