My 1st and Only Sponsored Run

Thomas Williams is raising money for The Newman Holiday Trust
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

BUPA Great North Run 2009 · 20 September 2009 ·

Established in 1981, the Newman Holiday Trust began by running a one week summer holiday for children with special needs. The Trust now provides holidays for about 130 children with special needs aged four to sixteen each year, in various locations around the UK. Due to the high level of skilled care they require or financial circumstances, the children selected for these breaks would not otherwise receive a holiday. The holidays provide a range of fun activities in a safe and supportive environment and use a care ration of one helper to one child at all times. The Trust is an entirely voluntary organization and owes its success to over 200 people who dedicate their free time to helping these children. This voluntary structure ensures that every penny raised goes directly towards a child's holiday.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

Please donate to the Newman Holiday Trust and spur me on in my efforts on the Great North Run. The Newman Trust is a charity that has not only changed the lives of some 2,000+ children with special needs in the UK but has really shaped the thoughts, attitudes and futures of thousands of volunteers...  including me.

I don't want to consider a world without the Newman Holiday Trust but apparently the bank manager is capable of doing so. So please join me, however small the amount, in keeping the Trust going.

 

 

The Newman Holiday Trust provides children with special needs with high quality week long, activity-based residential holidays. The organisation is entirely on a voluntary basis and childcare is provided one 1:1 basis.
