Happy Feet & The NSPCC
We are absolutely delighted to be partnering with and supporting the NSPCC in the North East.
Our aim is to raise awareness about the charity, their crucial services, and the amazing work they do!
AT Happy Feet, we are and have always been passionate about children's development. Both physical and mental. That is why we set up Happy Feet in the first place and have always stuck to one simple mission:
We aim to find the best and most stimulating toys and products to support children's development, allowing all of our little ones to flourish. They'll become physically literate and able to successfully navigate the world around them. Oh, and we mustn't forget, it MUST be FUN!
We believe all children should have the opportunity to flourish. Just like the little bundles of limitless possibilities they are when they come into the world.
As crucial as physical and mental development are for our little ones, we know it is not the full story. There is a whole other aspect of children's wellbeing and safety. Our children also, and most importantly, need a safe and loving home. Unfortunately, some children don’t have that, and in whatever way we can, we will try to make a difference. This is why we have taken the step to support and partner with the NSPCC in the North East. Having two children of our own, it is a partnership we take incredibly seriously and promise to do everything we can to make a difference.

About the NSPCC
The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children have been protecting children for over 100 years, by doing everything it can to prevent abuse and neglect, and giving expert support to help children recover.
Together, we can stop child abuse and neglect – by working with people and communities across the UK and Channel Islands to prevent it, transforming the online world to make it safer for children, and making sure every child has a place to turn for support when they need it.
We campaign for change. We work with schools to help children understand what abuse is and support them to speak out and feel safe. Childline is there for young people when they need us. And the NSPCC Helpline is ready to respond to adults with any worry about a child. We develop services in local communities to stop abuse before it starts and help children recover, so that it doesn’t shape their future.
And, above all, we work together – because we can’t stop child abuse alone.
We want to work with everyone in children’s lives, from parents and teachers, to sports coaches, nurses, social workers and members of the public. We’ll harness their kindness to create a social safety net that keeps children safe.
Everyone has a part to play in keeping children safe. By building a bigger team, we can give more children the safety and support they need. Every pound you raise, every petition you sign, every minute of your time, will make a difference. Together, we can change children’s lives.
THE NSPCC in the North East;
Our strategy commits us to being nationally significant and locally relevant, so that we can engage more people in our work than ever before. Our local services, delivered through our regional hubs, bring together our work in schools, local campaigning, and direct services. This local presence means that we can work with more children, young people, families, and partners across the UK.
