Who we work with

The Big Step works with charities, likeminded businesses and passionate individuals to help us to deliver our mission.

Take a look at just some of the charities and orgainsations that we work with to deliver our summer programmes throughout the South West.


Jay's Aim is a local charity that aims to reduce the rate of sudden cardiac deaths among young people in the South West. The charity delivers sessions at a number of our summer programmes for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated electronic defibrillator (AED).

This summer, with the support of our children, The Big Step raised £5,635, which enables Jay's Aim to provide public access defibrillators and training in the local community.


The Exeter Chiefs Community team deliver a wide variety of national and local programmes covering rugby engagement, education and health and well-being.

The team deliver a 'Train with the Chiefs' experience on our summer programmes. In 2021 we were lucky enough to work with the Exeter Chiefs Women's team who play in the Allianz Premier 15's - the top league of professional rugby in the UK.


Rocksteady is a band-based peripatetic music service which is delivered by professionals. On our programme, Rocksteady delivers a 1 hour workshop with the aim of the students playing in a band by the end of the session.


YAMA is an award winning martial arts and self-defense organisation that operates across Devon. In addition to being a fun and engaging workshop, students visibly grow their confidence and personal security awareness. Taught properly, children who learn self-defense skills are better aware of their surroundings and are trained in how to defend themselves against attackers - both adults and children.
