Fuze Ceremonies share their love with Scottish charities

The Fuze Foundation will support three amazing Scottish charities in 2022 – Scottish Association of Mental Health (SAMH), Scottish Cot Death Trust and Children’s Hospices Across Scotland (CHAS).

The not for profit Humanist organisation, which was established in 2012, announced the decision to support the charities after a final vote at their AGM.

With a team of over 50 professional celebrants, Fuze conducts legal humanist weddings, funerals and naming ceremonies, and over the years they have raised thousands of pounds for Scottish charities, raised awareness about funeral poverty, and provided ceremonies for those in need at no cost.

Couples who choose to be married by Fuze support this ongoing work as a portion of their fee is donated to support these causes.

Morag Webster, trustee of The Fuze Foundation, says, “The Fuze Foundation will also extend support past the normal route of financial means.

“This will include, but is not limited to, a range of collaborations and initiatives focussing on knowledge sharing and working together to educate employees, individuals and families across a range of mutual topics.”

This April Fuze will also celebrate it’s 10-year anniversary.

Morag adds, “We are so excited and proud to be able to support these three amazing charities who do such vital work within the community.

“It means a lot to everyone in the organisation to be able to give back while doing something they love.”

Children’s Hospices Across Scotland (CHAS) care for children throughout Scotland, and for the whole family.

Whether it’s at home, in hospital, or visiting Rachel or Robin House, they give care and support when needed.
Rebecca Addison, Trust Fundraiser says, “We are absolutely delighted to have been chosen to be one of The Fuze Foundation’s charities this year.

“Here at CHAS, we believe that no family should face the death of their child alone and this support will help us to reach more families across Scotland.”

Scottish Association of Mental Health (SAMH) work with adults and young people in over 60 communities providing mental health social care support, services in primary care, schools, and further education, among others.

Chloe Watson, Community and Events Fundraiser says, “The funds from by The Fuze Foundation will help SAMH raise awareness, promote good mental health and support those in Scotland who need it most.”

The third charity, Scottish Cot Death Trust provides a wide range of support for anyone affected by a sudden unexpected death in infancy (SUDI).

They also provide education sessions to various audiences about Safe Sleep and how to reduce the risks.

Lynsay Allan, Executive Director explained; “Scottish Cot Death Trust operates without government funding and is reliant on 100% charitable donations.

“The funds we will receive from The Fuze Foundation will help us to continue our vital work as Scotland’s only charity dedicated to the issue of sudden and
unexpected death in infancy and childhood.”
