Why are you choosing to give to Sense?

Please let us know why you're making this donation.

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

Yes! I would like Sense to claim Gift Aid on my donation now, in the future and in the past four years.

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.

Deafblindness can be very isolating for families

But you can help a child Thomas communicate with his family and give the greatest gift there is – connection

Caroline, Thomas’s mum, will never forget the first time he signed "Mum". She said, “Sense has been a huge part of getting Thomas communicating – I know we wouldn’t be at this point now if Sense hadn’t been involved’

Please make a donation today, to help other children like Thomas connect and communicate with their family.

You’ll receive a special pin badge as thank you for your gift.
