What the Ex-Pros say:

“We guarantee anyone taking part will find it an incredible experience. It will be hard work but also plenty of fun and the knowledge that it’s in aid of a fantastic cause, which makes a real difference to children living in the area, is superb motivation.” Lee Martin (ex Manchester United) PFA Logo Side

“Anyone with a spirit of adventure and a moderate level of fitness can sign up, so I’d urge all those that want to indulge their wanderlust and help a good cause, to do so now.” Peter Nicholson (ex Bolton Wanderers)

Fundraising

Your support is invaluable to us.

With 390,000 disabled people under the age of 16 in the UK, we urgently need you to help us change the lives of disabled children and young people.

Lydia and Kevin are supporting us by running the BUPA 10,000 in London on May 26th on their first wedding anniversary! And…to add to the fun, they are running in their wedding clothes! You can help by sponsoring them on their Just Giving page.

You can see Lydia and Kevin’s story at Your Berks & Bucks Wedding or Your Hampshire Wedding

With the specialist equipment that our grants and funding provide, their lives could be significantly improved.

There are so many ways in which you can help Children Today, whether you want to join us for an overseas challenge, set up a direct debit, support us as a corporate partner, take one of our home money boxes or carry out an event in your community. Whatever you do, you will be making a real difference to the lives of children and young people with disabilities.
