A voice for Christmas
Jane has a condition which means she is losing her voice.
Thanks to supporters like you, Jane is using cutting-edge technology to future-proof her ability to do the things that she love in the way that she wants.
We are Leonard Cheshire and we provide support to people with disabilities to live, learn and work as independently as they choose whatever their ability.
We offer a variety of services including residential and supported living, therapy suites, youth centres, social activities as well as training and volunteer programs.
We believe in building a fairer, more inclusive society. One that recognises the positive contributions we all make.
"Getting involved with Leonard Cheshire was a game-changer. For years I thought I wouldn't find paid work that suited my campaigning skills because of my disability. But Leonard Cheshire gave me the chance to develop my skills and build my experience."
Joshua Reeves, Campaigns Support Officer (Wales)

One of our supporters told us about the impact the cost of living crisis is having on their life and why they're scared for the future.
"I've become an expert in frugality, owing to the ever-increasing difficulty of making ends meet on disability benefits that have not been adequately adjusted for inflation and rising costs."
