Leave a gift in your will
Why gifts in Wills are so important
Did you know that on average gifts in Wills fund 63 babies each year to have a vital early assessment and specialist therapy if they have, or are suspected of having cerebral palsy? The number of babies and their families needing our service is increasing each year. Please help us to be there for those babies yet to be born.
How we are funded
We need to raise £1.8million each year to provide our service to children and their families. We receive around 20% of this from statutory sources however the majority (80%) comes from donations, gifts in Wills, retail and fundraising activity. In other words we are very much dependent on support from people like you.
The impact we have
The impact of our service is often best described by the families who come to us…
Following a block of specialist therapy, William was able to sit up on his own. Following a further block of therapy, he started crawling. William is now able to walk independently – he falls a lot and is very clumsy but he has exceeded all our expectations. The intensity, duration and expertise of Bobath therapy have produced astounding results. We feel privileged to have had the help and support from Cerebral Palsy Wales and are sure that William’s achievements are due to the skill of the therapists so early on in his life. Rebecca, William’s Mum

As a family, we have found Cerebral Palsy Cymru so helpful. The sessions have been very educational, and the emotional support we have received has also been truly amazing.

Harlow's Story
The early intervention service has given us clear guidance and practical activities to support Harlow at home. Their help has made a big difference in understanding her needs and in accessing further services. Harlow’s therapy sessions have truly been life-changing for her and for us as a family.

Rosie's Story
Even waiting in reception, we could see other families who were in similar situations, and we felt a sort of sense of belonging. We just felt less alone.

Ella's Story
The support and guidance we have received from the team at Cerebral Palsy Cymru has been excellent. Ella is currently on track with her milestones and Ella’s development is a great example of what early intervention can do.
