Discover more PATIENT STORIES

We feel very privileged when our patients choose to share their stories with us. Not only are we keen to hear how our patients are feeling following our assistance, but their stories help to inspire supporters to help keep us attending through participating in fundraising events, remembering us in their will, shopping with us, or volunteering.

Our patients are at the heart of everything we do. We know from their stories that their experience impacts many people in their lives too, from family members and friends, to colleagues and people within their communities, sometimes even strangers who were there when their incident happened. We continue to be grateful for the stories our patients so generously share.

Take a tour of our EVENTS GALLERIES

In no small part due to the events of the past year, how we fundraise is changing and we’ve drawn a great deal more on the eff orts of supporters who have embarked on fundraising events from home.

We’ve felt so inspired by those who have supported us through a range of activities they have undertaken within their local communities, from last year’s Base-to-Base Challenge and our Virtual Bike Show, to this spring’s March March event. Take a look at some of the photos our supporters have kindly shared of their participation.

TOP OF THE SHOPS

Helipad readers, followers of our social channels and web visitors who came to our charity website to fi nd out the latest shop news, locations and donations processes, will have noticed that last year we launched our new online shop.

This planned project was brought forward when our high street shops were closed for the periods of lockdown and we’ve been delighted to see it take off . Our team has been busy populating the site with an exciting and size inclusive range of quality items from women’s and men’s fashion, to vintage items, books, fi lms and more.
