Raising money for

The Dame Vera Lynn Trust For Children With Cerebral Palsy

Charity Registration No. 1089657

The Dame Vera Lynn School for Parents is a unique service for families of young children with cerebral palsy and other disabilities. Parents and children learn daily living skills together using the principles of Conductive Education.

The ethos of School for Parents is active learning through play. The children learn alongside their parents using guidelines from the Early Years curriculum incorporated within the holistic practice of Conductive Education

The emphasis in School for Parents is to provide strong practical support for all parents who have children with special needs within a mutually sympathetic and encouraging environment.

The service is provided totally free and is open to all. We receive no statutory funding and rely entirely on voluntary contributions. Your support will directly help a child with \Cerebral Palsy.

My story

I very much regret to say that I have had to postpone my 101 mile walk in aid of the Dame Vera Lynn Trust for children with Cerebral Palsy, because of an illness which has been on top of me for a month now. I apparently have an acutely inflamed liver- NOT due to too much alcohol!- which the doctors are trying to pin down. They have virtually ruled out cancer, which is good news for me. I have been allowed to cover the final Test at The Oval but not, alas, to walk more than 25 miles a day as planned.

May I thank very much everyone who has so kindly donated so far. The charity is intending to contact you either to refund the money or to see whether you wish to have it refunded. If they have not made contact soon, their email address is trustoffice@svlttrust.org.uk

I fully intend to walk the South Downs Way in aid of this very good cause as soon as I am fit again and can organise around the other commitments of my brother and myself. Again my grateful thanks to those who had promised a gift.

All good wishes,

Christopher
