Story

Thank you for visiting our Fundraising Page.

For 2022 and 2023, Conscious Solutions have chosen to support Gympanzees as their charity of the year.

As a team, we will be carrying out various activities over the year to raise funds, some as a team and some alone.

Gympanzees is a charity based in Bristol. They support children and young people (0-25 yrs old) with disabilities through a variety of services including pop up events, a roadshow, a specialist lending library and online resources.

Their main aim is to build the UK's first leisure facility that is fully accessible and tailored for children and young people with disabilities. It will be open 7 days per week, all through the year. The facility will be run in several sessions each day – each with a different focus so each child or young person will find slots that work for them. The facility will have several different areas which will be accessible for those with the most severe physical difficulties through to those who are very active with emotional or behavioural difficulties.

This world-class facility, which will be the first of its kind in the UK, will bring everything under one roof for children and young people with disabilities and their families.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
