Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

DiverseAbilitiesPlus is an independent charity founded in 1955 by a Bournemouth mum with a new baby diagnosed with profound disabilities. This local charity has grown over the last 50 years and now offers specialist services to numeour families across Bournemouth Poole and Dorset.

I recently visited Langside School, an independent specialist day school for children and young people from the age of 2 to 19 who have profound and multiple learning and physical disabilities. Their main aim is to give these incredible people the dignity and right wherever possible to make their own choices about their life and work situation and the activities in which they engage.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
