Trusts and foundations
We are extremely grateful to the many trusts and foundations in Wales and all over the UK which enable Cerebral Palsy Cymru to have a significant impact in the lives of children and families living with cerebral palsy.
How trusts and foundations can help
Cerebral palsy is the most common physical disability in the world. We at Cerebral Palsy Cymru are passionate about reaching as many of the estimated 1800 children in Wales who have cerebral palsy. We are ambitious as a charity and need your help to increase our investment into the following objectives:
- Maintain and eventually increase our capacity to treat more children from our waiting list
- Develop a new cerebral palsy centre for Wales that reflects us as a centre of excellence
- Contribute to the evidence base for interventions for people who have cerebral palsy
- Develop a sustainable future: around 80% of our funding comes from charitable donations
We have a range of capital and revenue projects that will provide an opportunity for your trust or foundation to invest in something with tangible and measurable outcomes.
If you are the trustee of a trust or foundation and you would like to explore how to be part of a future where all children living with cerebral palsy in Wales have the quality of life they deserve, please email Emma Brooks, Trusts & Legacies Fundraising Manager at emmab@cerebralpalsycymru.org or call 02920 522600.

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.

After our first therapy session, I left Cerebral Palsy Cymru’s children’s centre with something nobody had previously dared give me for my little boy. I left with hope.
