Organisations

A charity that supports adults with learning disabilities in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames and former residents of Normansfield (Registered Charity No. 210144).

The charity allocates grant aid from its annual income for the benefit of adults and young people in transition and those approaching transition 15+ years with learning disabilities and their carers, local voluntary organisations supporting people with learning disabilities and local learning disabilities services.

For individuals, this could include grants for special equipment, e.g. to help furnish accommodation for independent living; holidays, leisure experiences; "extras" not provided by statutory services to meet particular needs. For voluntary and other local learning disability services a grant would preferably be for a particular project or development where statutory funds could not be made available. Grants are generally given on a "one off" basis rather than as continuing funding.
