Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Contact a Family provides vital support for families of disabled children. As a charity we know all about how important families are, so for this fundraising challenge I've enlisted my Mum!

I (Amanda) am CEO of Contact a Family, so I know what a difference the charity makes for families of disabled children, and that every pound is well spent. I also know that life for so many disabled children and their families is so much tougher than it should be; and that it needs to be. Contact a Family is about changing that. And with your support we can reach more families that need us, and reach them earlier in their journey. 

Jane is walking 50km and Amanda is walking 100km in just one weekend. We both like walking, but by anyone's standards this is a really, really long way - our feet will be very tired! Your support will really help motivate us along the way.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Many, many thanks,

Amanda and Jane x
