Disabled
Over a billion people in the world today have some form of disability. 80% of these people live in the developing world. We believe in helping to create a world where all disabled people are included and fully participate in every aspect of life. Wheelchairs are at the heart of our work – but not just any wheelchair. We believe passionately in providing the right wheelchair, in the right way. That means our wheelchairs are designed to deal with potholed roads, rough terrain and rural environments found in developing countries. At the same time we promote the importance of making sure that each wheelchair is individually fitted by a trained professional to World Health Organization standards. And this is just the start. To really put the wheels in motion, we work with partners and volunteers to make sure disabled people have support and training to be healthy, confident and included in society. They’re not the only ones to benefit: families, communities, even economies feel the positive change.
Motor Neurone Disease is a rapidly progressive and fatal disease that can affect any adult at any time. The cause is unknown and within an average life expectancy of just 14 months after diagnosis, everyday in the UK three people die of MND. MND leaves people unable to walk, talk or feed themselves. They still think and feel but their muscles refuse to work. The MND Association provides practical help, advice and support to people with MND and their families. We also fund vital research into cause, treatment and ultimately to find a cure. The MND Association is the only national charity fighting MND. We receive no government funding and depends entirely on donations and legacies to enable the Association to continue its work, that is so valuable to so many. Your bequest or gift would help bring hope to the thousands of people whose lives are affected by MND.

Multiple Sclerosis Research Treatment and Education (MS Research) is a national charity dedicated to furthering our understanding of MS and developing better treatments.
We believe research is vital in order to:
- find better answers to the problems those who have MS and those close to them face every day
- maximise vital opportunities to bring us closer to an eventual cure
- help to overcome the inadequacies and inequalities of treatment
- further our understanding of MS and its impact.
Through research we are:
“Looking forward to seeing the back of MS!”
