The Charlotte Hartey Foundation was proud to support The Movement Centre, a remarkable Oswestry-based charity helping children with movement difficulties through specialised therapy called ‘Targeted Training’. Their current ‘Stand With Us!’ campaign highlights the importance of standing frames, a vital piece of equipment used daily at home by the children undergoing therapy. These frames help the children gain greater movement control, allowing them to develop key life skills and independence.

We also had the pleasure of supporting Derwen College by sponsoring students participating in the Gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. Our initial donation of £682 allowed a student with mobility challenges, Brendan, to take part in a sailing expedition on the Norfolk Broads. Inspired by his visit and positive spirit, we doubled our support to £1,364, enabling another student to take part. Students Lizzie and Dylan, both accomplished swimmers for Team GB in Down Syndrome Swimming, are taking on the challenge of a four-day Snowdonia expedition. It’s been incredibly rewarding to help these students experience new adventures, grow their confidence, and develop important life skills.

Thanks to a grant from the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) Foundation, we are able to help the Primary Care Foundation with their work in Sri Lanka, where funding had nearly ran out. Find out more about their work here.
