Waythrough launched in October 2024 following the merger of Humankind and Richmond Fellowship.

We have over 260 services around England – and nearly 3,500 amazing staff and volunteers who run them. Bringing together two big organisations is no small task and it’ll take a while to fully integrate our systems, processes and approaches. That’s why you’ll notice our referral forms are still branded as Humankind. We’ll updating them soon, but thanks for bearing with us in the meantime.
