Story

Hi

Firstly we want to say a big thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

You are here because we have taken on the daunting 3 Peaks Challenge to raise vital funds for the Dame Vera Lynn Trust for Children with Cerebral Palsy.

The Trust which was set up in 2001 needs to raise £540,000 annually to enable the vital services that the School for Parents provides to continue. The for Parents is a support service for families of young children with Cerebral Palsy and similar disabilities.

School for Parents involves active learning through play. Using the principles of Conductive Education and alongside their parents, the children learn daily living skills and are empowered to make choices and become more independent. This prepares them for life at home, the community and for the next stages of their education.

With no statutory funding the Trust relies completely on the help of the community, local businesses, fundraising events and generous donations from the public which is why we are asking you to dig deep when donating to this fabulous cause.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

This challenge is no easy feat for us but it is something that all of us are determined to beat. We want to thank you in advance for your support and promise that we will not let you down!
