what we do
Since the Trust started in 1994 we have received some 400 applications for equipments and resources for children with special needs in Derbyshire. We have funded 320 of these.

All the applications need to be supported by a Health Care professional. They are then assessed on each applicant’s individual circumstances by the Trust’s Grants Committee. On average we provide this kind of support to about 35 applicants every year and spend some £14,000 per year in helping children with special needs. Examples of our work are shown in our Grants page. Details of how to apply for funds are set out here.
Virtually all of the income generated by the Trust is allocated to the applicants. None of our Volunteers claims any personal expenses: they all give their time for nothing.
