About the Building Potential Campaign

The Fircroft Trust needs to act now to keep our Maple Lodge family together.

The Maple Lodge building is an old house that we can no longer adapt to meet the changing needs of our older residents and those developing other illnesses such as dementia.

There is currently no provision for older people with learning disabilities in the Borough of Kingston. This means that if we can no longer provide for their needs they will be housed in another Borough. They will become isolated them from their friends and the staff who understand them when they are at one of the most vulnerable periods in their lives.

This is a very real danger and one that we want to ensure never happens. We must be able to offer lifelong care from the Maple Lodge family and future residents.

With your help are developing purpose built accommodation that will provide real and lasting solutions for our residents changing needs.

We are committed to keeping our family together.

Please do as much as you can to support this appeal.
