Child Brain Injury Trust

Trustees are pleased to support the work in the West Midlands in continuing to visit children in hospital, support them emotionally, ease their transition back home and support their educational progress as they recover from Acquired Brain Injury.

Chickenshed Theatre

Trustees of JHCT are very proud to have a connection with such an innovative charity as Chicken Shed which demonstrates Inclusion in their whole philosophy and practice. Sadly the number of charities applying to us has increased dramatically and our generated income from investments has not risen as anticipated. We do want to maintain our support of Chicken Shed’s work and can offer a grant albeit much less than usual at the start of your new 3 year cycle. We offer to pay for Lead Mentor sessions for Children’s Theatre.

Chailey Heritage Foundation

Trustees are pleased to support the specialist hippotherapy (therapeutic riding) service.  We have had to limit our awards this year but hope that our grant will help towards enabling the charity to continue with this life enhancing experience, for children with complex needs.

Cerebral Palsy Cymru

Trustees are pleased to be able to award a grant, albeit reduced, for continuing vital work with children and families in Wales.

Candlelighters

Trustees are pleased to support the salary of a part-time outreach play specialist working with children with cancer in Yorkshire.

Brighter Opportunities for Special People

Trustees are pleased to support the work of this small charity and congratulate it on the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service that acknowledges its work in enabling children with life limiting conditions to have fun.

Brainwave Centre

Trustees are pleased to be able to make a grant (albeit smaller) for its work with brain injured children in the W. Midlands.  We request that our grant is put towards your therapist’s costs rather than as a bursary to individual families.

Bolton Lads & Girls Club

Trustees are pleased to award a further £2,500 towards the cost of the valuable work you do in delivering the Youth Inclusion Project.

Bendrigg Trust

Trustees are pleased to be able to support the work of Bendrigg Trust again this year, albeit with a reduced award. Its wonderful work in providing adventurous experiences to children with special needs from urban areas is much appreciated.

Dame Vera Lynn Children’s Charity

Trustees thank you for your application to support children with cerebral palsy and other motor learning impairments. We would like to give you a grant towards your Learning Together Project of conductive education sessions to help children improve their physical and communication skills, as well as their social and emotional well-being.
