White Lodge provides services that enable those with a range of disabilities, their families and carers to lead fulfilling lives. We support over 2,500 individuals across Surrey and beyond through a wide and diverse range of services for all ages and abilities.

Story

My name is Evie. 

I have been supporting White Lodge Centre for few years. They are local charity based in Surrey which support disabled children, young people and adults. 

I want to challenge myself by completing The Petra Trek  October 2016, which will be very challenging but I Am ready for the challenge. " I think there's no point in living if you can't help these in need." 

Apart from completing a SkyDive I don't think I have ever done anything so challenging.

Please donate anything you can is much appreciated everything raised will go to White Lodge Centre.

It costs £2.5 million a year to run White Lodge Centre which is not fully met by statutory resources. Here’s how your donation will help:

- £25 is the cost of a playworker to support a disabled child for half a day at a specialist holiday play scheme.
- £50 will pay for one session in the hydrotherapy pool for a disabled child or adult.
- £100 will pay for two physiotherapy sessions for a disabled child or adult.

Thanks to the support White Lodge Centre has received over the last year, this is some of what they have been able to achieve:

- 431 people benefited from hydrotherapy
- 142 children and young people accessed their playschemes
- 104 adults and 63 babies and children accessed their therapy services
- 42 individuals were supported through their Face2face service
