We are Leonard Cheshire - supporting individuals to live, learn and work as independently as they choose, whatever their ability. Led by people with experience of disability, we are at the heart of local life - opening doors to opportunity, choice and support in communities around the globe. Leading by example, we do everything humanly possible to empower people to live their lives as freely and as fully as they choose.

At the "Heatherley" home in Copthorne, we are raising money to make the outdoor recreational area more wheelchair friendly. All residents here are wheelchair users, so it is imperative for their independence to improve the grassed "football pitch".
