Origen Financial Services have chosen Parity as their charity for 2017. Parity is a charity that works with disabled teens and young adults who have to deal with multiple disabilities on a daily basis. Once full time education comes to an end, the support that people with multiple disabilities could count on as children often declines dramatically. Their families and carers compare the experience to falling off a cliff.

At the day services centre, people have the opportunity to develop independence, make choices, are included socially and hold onto important life skills. Their physio, speech and communication needs are overseen by important life therapists, they also have access to interactive and assistive devices such as 'Eyegaze' eye controlled technology. The regular trips out that the students choose to do would not be possible without Parity's fleet of adapted minibuses.
