We are absolutely devastated that a road traffic collision on Thursday 11 October caused three members of staff to lose their lives while two others are still in hospital. We have been overwhelmed by messages of support and many wished to support the loved ones of those directly affected, so we have set up a Family Fund to enable this. Read more
We have the highest ambitions for the young people at Prior's Court. To enable us to support them to reach their potential, we are continuously looking at ways to improve our facilities.
Each young person is funded through their Local Authority or Social Services, which covers their core provision, their day to day educational and care needs and the highly trained staff who support them. However, we aim to provide as much support as possible above and beyond the day to day care to encourage independence-building and offer vocational activities that will enable our young people to live a fulfilling and inclusive life.
Every activity or piece of equipment makes a difference to the young people in our care - we are proud of the progress they make and we would not be able to provide them with extended opportunities without your support.
Below are the current projects that need your support; either by making a donation or by organising or taking part in a fundraising event. You can also just click on the general donations link to give an unrestricted donation.
