The Big Motive
To build the UK's first breathing-space system: 72 hours of safety, support and planning for every mother and baby in crisis, preventing abandonment before it begins.
Our Values
Three principles guide everything we do: Identity, Integrity and Intuition.
Identity
Every child deserves a name, a story, and a recognised place in the world. We work to ensure no child’s beginning is reduced to an anonymous record.
Integrity
We’re clear about what we can and can’t do. We share how we’re governed, how we’re funded, and where the boundaries are—because trust is built in the open.
Intuition
When a parent’s instinct says something is wrong, we take it seriously.
Reaching out isn’t failure—it’s one of the bravest things a parent can do.
In other words
Our mission is to prevent infant abandonment by creating a lawful, dignified route to safety for a mother in crisis and her baby—together. We support our community by bridging the gap between crisis and prevention & Care.
Our Vision
A world where infant abandonment is prevented and becomes history. Where connection replaces concealment, where every parent in crisis is met with help before harm, and where every baby is known, named, and safe from their first breath.
