Support Us
Living with a disability presents huge daily challenges for young people and their families. At the Chiltern Centre we alleviate some of these challenges and make life a little easier and a lot more joyful.
In order to do this, we must raise in excess of £200,000 each year simply to keep our doors open. There are so many ways you can support us. From becoming a Friend, to giving a one of gift. It doesn’t matter if you have lots of time to give or very little, if you like to run events or prefer to attend them, you want to cycle round the world or support from your armchair.
Whatever you can give or do, your support will help us to make a difference.
Take a look below to find out all about the ways you can become part of our Chiltern Centre Family. Thank you for thinking of us.
GET ACTIVE
We have all been in awe of someone who has walked, run, cycled, swum, hopped, skipped or jumped great distances for charity. You could be one of those people! Doing an active challenge is not only a great way to get yourself fit and challenge yourself to achieve something amazing, it is also a fabulous way to raise money for the Chiltern Centre and help to change the lives of and young people with disabilities.
We are currently recruiting team members to Trek Toubkal in 2023. A stunning and challenging trek to the highest peak in North Africa.
Or create your own challenge, and just get going! We will provide you with all the support you need with your fundraising and to help you to publicise your challenge.
RUN YOUR OWN EVENT
We are so grateful to the people who give up their time each year to run events on our behalf. Each year supporters of the Centre run everything from coffee mornings to private concerts, pub quizzes to golf days and sponsored walks to cake sales.. Whatever it is that you love to do, however big or small – we would love for you to do it on our behalf. If you would like to run an event for us, please do get in touch – we will provide you with as much support as you want and need in order to get your event running.
BECOME A FRIEND
Donate £10 per month to become a Friend of the Centre, £25 to be a Silver Friend and £50 to be a Gold Friend.
Your regular donations give us the opportunity to continue to empower young people with disabilities. Continue to offer their families a break and a rest. Continue to build a family and a community around each young person. Continue to change lives.
DONATE NOW
We rely on one off and regular donations to keep our doors open. Your donation helps us to sustain our service, plan our specialist care over the long term and provide fun and creative activities that enhance the lives of all the young people who come through our door.
The Chiltern Centre gives young people with disabilities the chance to gain independence, learn new skills, build friendships & have fun. It provides the opportunity to be 'seen' as a person not defined by their disability. It gives their families a rest from their role as carers. It is a life line for our young people and their families, and it is only here because of the incredible support we have from our local community. Thank you for your donation. Thank you for changing lives.
