Charity

Reach Charity Ltd - Association For Children With Upper Limb Deficiency - Each year, babies are born in the UK missing part of one or both arms and hands. Added to these are a small number of children who lose limbs or parts of limbs due to traumatic incidents or necessary surgery. For many of the families of these children it is the first time that they will have come across such a disability. 'Reach' aims to provide the affected families with the opportunity to get together, share experiences and information about what to do (or not to do) and where to go for advice regarding treatment and to help them realise that they are not alone. Reach offers: * local branches which provide support and an opportunity for children and parents to meet * national office providing advice and support * quarterly newsletter 'Within Reach' * Insurance cover for the child's 'good' arm (covers UK residents from age 2 as long as they are Reach members) * Hire scheme for one-handed Recorders * Bursary Grants to eligible applicants * Annual Activity Week for Reach children * Socialising and Networking with other families

Hi, thanks for visiting my page. Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor me and donations will be quickly processed and passed to Reach, my chosen charity.

Reach is a charity that supports children with upper limb deficiency. They were a great support to my wife Bessie and me when our daughter Ruby was born. I wanted to support them and I am running on the 11th of July in the British 10k Run.

Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this. I really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.

Fundraising has now finished, but thanks for visiting this page.
