Medical Support, Improving Lives

The Victoria Foundation is a charity based in Richmond which is helping to improve many lives by providing medical support and equipment to those in need. This includes mobility aids and communication aids for disabled children, fully accessible mini-buses operated by Richmond and Kingston Accessible Transport (RaKAT), bursaries and Toolkit Grants for medical students to purchase books, equipment & medical instruments, and medical treatment where it is not readily available on the NHS. For further details see:  www.thevictoriafoundation.org.uk

I am hugely grateful to The Victoria Foundation and would urge people to get involved and support the charity so that it can continue to help people like me.’ Lesley Whiting

‘As always, thank you so much on behalf of all the thousands of people you help.’ RaKAT

 

Momentum was established in 2004 and is a small independent charity based in Kingston. We support children and their families in Surrey and South West London who are undergoing treatment for cancer.

When a child is diagnosed, as a parent you feel utterly helpless and isolated. Your family is plunged into a state of complete anxiety and fear and the lives of everyone within your family are turned upside down.

Momentum is able to offer immediate support from people who really understand your situation. We have also completed a number of projects that have significantly enhanced the healing environment within the children’s wards and have two holiday homes in the New Forest, where we can send families on much needed respite breaks.

Feedback from one of our families: ‘We never realised how much of a difference Momentum would make to our lives! Your commitment to us and your kindness is something that we will remember forever.’

There are an estimated 70,000 disabled children and young people in the UK waiting for a wheelchair that fits their young lives. That’s where we come in. Whizz-Kidz provides disabled children with the essential wheelchairs and other mobility equipment they need to lead fun and active childhoods. And at Whizz-Kidz, the wheelchair is just the start - we also run youth groups, wheelchair skills training, work experience placements and residential camps, all to enable disabled children and young people to reach their full potential and discover the freedom of independence.

 

None of the work that we do would be possible without the generosity, dedication and support of our donors and event participants. Join us in the Richmond Running Festival Half Marathon and use one active day of your life to transform the lives of disabled children and young people throughout the UK.
