Story

We are proud to support FOBE, a registered charity that has been a cornerstone of the Luton community for over 30 years, providing vital services to children with Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND). With the recent opening of their new centre in June 2023, FOBE has been able to expand its support, offering weekly respite services to approximately 90 children and running holiday schemes for up to 25 children each day. This new centre, complete with specialist facilities such as a sensory room and accessible outdoor play area, has significantly enhanced the experiences of the children and families they serve.

However, with this exciting growth comes the challenge of increased demand, particularly in terms of financial resources. To continue offering these essential services, FOBE faces substantial operational costs, including utilities and facility maintenance.

We are deeply committed to helping meet these needs and aim to be raising £30,000 for FOBE in 2025 to cover these critical costs.

Your support will directly contribute to ensuring that the children and families who rely on FOBE can continue to access the life-changing services and facilities they need. At this crucial time, every contribution makes a real difference, and we are grateful for the opportunity to be part of this important cause.
