Sense is here to support disabled people from the first weeks of life through all the major milestones of adulthood. Over 70 years, we’ve built extensive knowledge and expertise in supporting disabled people with complex needs, including deafblind people.

Story

I am a girl who 7 years ago decided to try running and it has given me so much in return. Running marathons is something I would never thought possible but in 2021 I will run my 5th marathon in London. So grateful to to be given this opportunity to run next April whilst raising money for Sense, an amazing charity that changes the lives of people with complex disabilities. In 2019 sense marathon runners raised £873,681 to assist others.

Sense is a charity that believes that no one, no matter how complex their disabilities, should be isolated, left out, or unable to fulfil their potential.Their experts offer personalised support through their centres, holidays and short breaks, or in people’s own homes. They are here for everyone who needs them, for as long as they need them – providing early intervention for children, helping young people access education, and supporting the transition into adulthood and beyond.

$10 can help with music therapy to help stimulate children with complex disabilities 

$15 could pay for a glowing ball that changes colour helping people with sensory impairments 

$35 can help create a mini-sensory environment for a child in a cot or hospital bed 

$70 could pay for a sensory experience for a child 

Any amount can help ☺️

Thank you for helping this charity continue its wonderful work
