From 2–9 December, we’re aiming to raise £54,000 to help people with learning disabilities build brighter, more independent lives – brick by brick.
During this week, every donation will be doubled at no extra cost to you, meaning your gift will go twice as far.
Too many people with learning disabilities only get help with one part of life – housing, work or relationships – without the joined-up support they really need. Without those solid foundations, progress in one area can quickly crumble. A job means little if you’re lonely or struggling at home. We’re raising money to build complete, connected support – helping people develop all the building blocks they need to thrive, not just survive.
Help us with the solution
Your support funds personalised, one-to-one guidance that looks at the whole picture, helping each person identify what matters most, whether that’s mental health, friendships, work, or independence and putting every brick in place for a stronger, more confident future.
Here’s how your support helps turn aspirations into reality:
- Help young people leaving education transition smoothly and confidently into adult life
- Support people who’ve experienced trauma to talk, heal, and plan their next steps
- Empower families to have their voices heard and feel supported
- Provide real training and work experience that leads to lasting employment
- Offer joined-up support so every person can build a stable, connected, and fulfilling life
Only with your help can we make this a reality.
