How the Money is Helping
P.A.C.E Centre- Your support enables them to reach children with Cerebral Palsy and their families though intensive programmes, training and outreach. They depend on donations from trusts, businesses, groups and individuals. The First Steps Fund supports our early years Parent and Child (P&C) services. Every gift or pledge to PACE is precious.
P.A.C.E has recently been featured on BBC Children in Need.
How the Money is Helping Help for Heroes- The aim of this charity is to
help injured and or/wounded service men and women. They help them with all kinds of rehabilitation and support services.
