BBC Lifeline Appeal

Will you help a child like Verity?

Verity is part of our BBC Lifeline Appeal, giving people the opportunity to be understood, connect with others and live their life to the full, no matter how complex their condition.

Your monthly donation could help pay for a child who is deafblind to attend a Sense pre-school group with their parents.

£15 a month could help pay for a sensory disco kit, complete with glowsticks and sensory toys, so a child who is deafblind can experience the joy of a disco!

£10 a month could help pay for a set of musical bells, to be used in music therapy.

£20 a month could help pay for a one-to-one arts session, live or online, between an artist and a child who is deafblind.

Add 25% extra to your donation for free with Gift Aid?

I am a UK taxpayer and understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year it is my responsibility to pay any difference. Sense will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I have given.

Verity's mum, Sarah: “Sense has really opened up the world for Verity – but for us too as a family. It brought us together. It's made us stronger in terms of our interactions with Verity, for all of us for our children and for her siblings, and long may it continue.”
