At East Kent Mencap we usually celebrate Christmas with shows, parties and pantos. Sadly, we know that this year is going to be rather different with the restrictions in place. It will be especially tough for our members with a learning disability with most of their clubs and services closed, and many unable to visit families and friends.
So we want to spread some festive cheer and let them know people in their local community support them.
The photograph pictured is from our Christmas festivities last year.
Will you donate £30 to fund some seasonal goodies and lift their spirits?
Our friendly staff will be working throughout the Christmas period to deliver the bags along with practical help and support, to people with a learning disability across East Kent, who are isolated.
We appreciate that this has been a difficult year for many people but please share some joy this season and include East Kent Mencap on your Christmas List.
You can donate using the form below, by emailing us at funds@eastkentmencap.co.uk or calling our switchboard on: 01843 808964 during office hours.
