Put a Spring in Your Step: HEY Smile Chances Easter Egg Appeal 2026

Easter is a time of hope, celebration and community — but for many families and community groups, providing Easter treats and activities can be a challenge. That’s why the Smile Chances Easter Egg Appeal 2026 is here to help put a spring in your step this season.

Delivered by HEY Smile Foundation Cahnces Fund, the appeal offers support to organisations working with children and young people who may otherwise miss out on Easter celebrations.

What Support Is Available?

Through the Smile Chances Fund, groups can apply for support with:

• Collecting Easter eggs and treats
• Funding for Easter activities
• Helping create inclusive, joyful Easter experiences for local children

As highlighted in the appeal poster, the aim is simple: “We’re here to help put a spring in your step this Easter!

Whether you’re planning a small community gathering, a youth club celebration, or distributing Easter treats to families in need, this funding can help make it happen

Who Can Apply?

The appeal is designed to support voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations and community groups delivering activities for children and young people across our area. If your group is working directly with families who would benefit from a little extra support this Easter, this opportunity could make a real difference.

Key Dates

• Applications open: Monday 23rd February
