New Ambassadors for Honeypot

7 May 2026

Social media influencers, Matthew and Ryan, who have a combined audience of more than 10 million followers, have become ambassadors for The Honeypot Children’s Charity, marking the next step in a relationship that has grown over the past five years.


The pair, who live locally to Honeypot House in the New Forest, have been regular visitors to the charity, spending time with young carers and children aged 5–12 experiencing difficult circumstances. From joining festive celebrations to meeting children during their visits, they have seen first-hand the difference Honeypot’s Respite and Health and Wellbeing Breaks and ongoing wraparound support can make.


Their local connection has helped them build meaningful relationships with both the children and the team, and they have become valued supporters within the community.


As ambassadors, Matthew and Ryan will use their platforms to help raise awareness of Honeypot’s work, supporting the charity’s mission to create happy memories and build brighter futures for children who need it most.


Speaking about their new role, Matthew and Ryan said they were proud to deepen their involvement with Honeypot after seeing the charity’s impact up close.


They said: “Over the past five years, we’ve seen first-hand the difference Honeypot makes in giving children the chance to relax, have fun and just be kids. Being local to Honeypot House has made the connection even more meaningful for us, and we’re passionate about supporting a charity that is making such a positive impact in our own community.”


Simmi Woodwal, CEO of The Honeypot Children’s Charity, said the team was delighted to officially welcome them as ambassadors.


She said: “Matthew and Ryan have been wonderful supporters for many years, taking the time to visit us, connect with the children and truly understand the difference our work makes.


Their enthusiasm, warmth and genuine commitment have made a real impact, and we are excited to build on this relationship. Having ambassadors who are part of our local community is particularly special, and with their significant online audience, they are well placed to help us raise awareness of the support we provide to young carers and children aged 5–12 experiencing difficult circumstances, both locally and across the UK.”
