Over the last 10 years the Trust has been committed to helping children with disabilities and their families by providing them with grants for pieces of equipment such as, wheelchairs, car seats, sensory toys, specialist trikes and buggies as well as treatment and therapies including speech and language therapy and movement therapy. These pieces of equipment make such a positive difference to the children’s lives, it can help their development, give them independence or even speed up their recovery. We'd like to share with you some of the children we have had the pleasure of helping…..
We pride ourselves on creating a sense of community within the Trust… Not only does the Boparan Trust fund individuals, we also fund community projects. Over the last 10 years the trust has funded over 25 projects which has impacted over 75,000 children’s lives. Here are some of the projects the trust has funded over the years.
Each year, the Boparan Trust works with Victoria School in Birmingham and takes children with lifelong illnesses for a once in a lifetime experience to Disney Land, Florida. The trip gives the children the experience of being away from home, with the support and care of dedicated staff.
The Boparan Charitable Trust has provided funding for over seven community groups to purchase new floating devices for children with disabilities. ‘Floatsation’ is a unique matrix of balls giving total support and independence for children with disabilities, enabling everyone to have fun in the water in a safe and confident way.
The Boparan Trust provided funding towards an outside garden play area at the Heartlands Hospital High Dependency Unit for children. The garden was designed to be a ‘safe haven’ for children to enjoy all throughout the year with their family and friends. The garden consists of green area, a play area, a covered area for bad weather and also a quiet sensory area for children with complex needs. We’ll keep you updated on its progress throughout the year.
