There is so much more that children with disabilities need. We raise money to provide this: from eye-gaze software to specialist gym equipment, from outdoor play to indoor soft play area. Our current priority is for a trampoline room as part of the school extension and refurbishment works.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Downs View is a fantastic school looking after our two grandsons. They have two worn out old and tired mini-buses which desperately need replacing. The Variety Club will pay half of the cost which leaves £17,000 to be raised. Joe is seven and in the time he has been attending Downs View he has made significant progress, his speech is developing and he is interacting more and more. Joe loves Downs View, he wants to go every day and will plead to go during holidays as he likes it so much. Finley will follow Joe next year and both boys will benefit from this excellent specialist school.  The boys will never be independent and they need all the help they can get. The mini-buses are used extensively to take the children to lots of different venues where they see and learn from a wide range of experiences, the boys will be out and about twice a week and we want them to be safe and comfortable.
