Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
CHIPS was founded on behalf of the UK Gaming industry, in order to raise funds to purchase specialised powered wheelchairs for youngsters with varying disabilities.
CHIPS provides wheelchairs for children who would otherwise have no way of getting around on their own. CHIPS funds the wheelchairs that the NHS cannot or will not provide and that the parents cannot afford to buy.
Thanks to the UK Gaming industry, CHIPS has raised over £2,000,000 and has presented over 500 wheelchairs to youngsters.
There are, however, many more children who need our help.
The CHIPS Charity committee, which is formed from senior members of the Gaming Industry, works for free, no expenses are deducted and every penny raised goes towards providing the quality of life that is the right of every child.
Having joined the charity as a trustee last year, I have been able to see first hand the difference these wheelchairs make to the lives of these young people and their families.
Needless to say, in order for this to be sustainable, CHIPS is heavily reliant on financial support from generous donors.
And this is where I come in. At the end of July, I am going to be climbing The Three Peaks: Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike, and Snowdon in three, consecutive days.
