Thank you for supporting our work with less fortunate children. The Tony Hawks Children's Health Centre improves the life quality of chronically ill children from socially vulnerable families. They combine multi-disciplinary rehabilitation with parental education to help promote each child’s integration into society. The aim is to optimize the child’s potential for the future development of their young bodies.
While the service is free to access for users, the annual budget to operate the Centre is in the region of £92,000.
Additional funding will help the team at the Tony Hawks Centre maintain their free-to-use service, and allow them to enhance and replace orthopaedic equipment. The Centre also needs to maintain their programme of providing desperately needy children and their families practical aid in the form of medications, food, and clothing.
The household budgets for families with disabled children are always under severe pressure. Economic crisis such as that experienced with Covid-19 makes such pressure even harder.
Over the Christmas period, the team from the centre, distributed food packages to families in need. The families were thankful for the kindness they received.
Food packages are so important for struggling families, but with your support, we are giving children the tools to reach their full potential.
Thank you for supporting this programme.
With gratitude
