The difference your support makes

We’re so grateful for every donation and grant we’ve received over the years. We consider ourselves very fortunate to be supported by so many people, from individuals to corporate teams, to trusts, foundations and local authorities.

Your generosity helps the people we support to live their best lives. It allows us to adapt our homes for the changing needs of people we support. It allows us to give the people we work with opportunities to try and do new things, such as a new hobby, or going on holiday.

We also invest funds in assistive technology and adapted equipment to help people retain independence and control of their own lives.

And it’s not just money that makes a difference, you can also give us your time by becoming a volunteer.


 

Success Stories

Warmley Wheelers Cycle Challenge

Every July we host the Cycle Challenge to raise money for our accessible cycling project, Warmley Wheelers. Participants take on a cycling-related challenge of their choice and ask for sponsorship to complete this. This could be learning to ride a bike, cycling to work every day, or even cycling 1,000 miles throughout the month!

In 2022, participants raised a fantastic £1,400 for Warmley Wheelers. We are so proud of each of them for what they have achieved.

A new service at Graeme Close

Thanks to a very generous legacy donation of £250,000, we have transformed our Graeme Close property into a transition service for eight people with learning disabilities and complex needs.

The new service will provide a structured transition programme over a period of around two years, working to enable people to increase their independence and to move on to less support within the local community. News about the opening will be coming soon, so watch this space!

Expressions Exhibition 2024 – sponsors needed

We’re looking for sponsors to support our public exhibition for Expressions Arts in 2024.

Expressions is our inclusive arts programme consisting of weekly art groups, workshops, and a drop-in centre, all culminating in our annual public exhibition. We’re seeking sponsorship to help us host an event that best showcases our artists’ work. In return, we’ll use your name (individual or organisation) on the event branding in print and online.

Please visit the Expressions website to find out more and to view our past exhibitions.

To express your interest in sponsoring our exhibition, please contact fundraising@milestonestrust.org.uk
