Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. 

On Saturday 21st November we (Luca Brantly, Emma Philipps, Tortie Willis, Sophie Sinclair, Nina Shenkman, Alice Law, Milly Smith, Portia Leslie, Cordi Fleming and Georgina Philipps) will be walking The Thames Bridges path to raise money for Footsteps Foundation. This is a 25km walk zig zagging over all of London's main bridges from east to west. 

Any donations would be much appreciated and will go so far in helping children at Footsteps. 

About Footsteps Foundation 

The foundation provides financial assistance to families in need of support, enabling children with cerebral palsy and other neurological disorders to access the Footsteps therapy programme.

1 in 400 children in the UK is born with cerebral palsy. 

55% of disabled children grow up in, or on the margins of poverty.

The cost of bringing up a disabled child can be 3 times greater than that of raising a child without disabilities.

Because of this, the foundation helps those families that want to bring their children for the specialist life-changing Footsteps therapy, but would find the costs difficult to cover without help. 

Footsteps needs your help to continue their vital work, helping disabled children to get stronger and more confident. Footsteps have improved the lives of hundreds of disabled children, helping them to reach their full potential through their life-changing physiotherapy and we are now coming together to keep this brilliant service going.

Intensive physiotherapy is virtually impossible to access on the NHS and community fundraising is as you will all know extremely challenging at the moment, and so without the generous support of people like you many children will lose out on this life changing treatment. So any donation you can make will be hugely appreciated and will go far.

This is a wonderful charity which has changed the lives of so many children, including Luca's sister in law Minty, who was able to walk after receiving treatment at Footsteps.
