We have funds available to donate towards Arthritis, Scoliosis,Brittle Bone Disease and all other conditions of the bone. To be elligable the child must be under 18 years of age, and suffer from one of these ailments. We provide grants for medical equipment, computers/software, toys, sensory equipment, short breaks away, days out and proven household bills.
Grants are normally £250 per child, but this figure is open to discussion depending on the child's circumstances. If you feel that you would like to apply for a grant, you will need to complete an application form (which is available on this website), which has to be signed by either a social worker, or a relevent medical consultant, i.e. GP, Physiotherapist, etc. You must clearly state your child's conditions, and what you require the grant for (quotes would be appreciated).
We also provide one week holidays to be taken at one of our three holiday homes, in Blackpool, Great Yarmouth and Hastings. Each family is provided with £250 spending money, + travel expenses. We are currently taking bookings for 2006. If you require any further information please contact the grants team on: 020 8590 9283.
