A huge thank you to everyone who has pledged this week to support our Big Give Christmas Challenge; we are delighted to have reached our target of £2,000.

The Big Give Christmas Challenge is the UK's biggest online match funding campaign. This year we're raising vital funds for young people with learning disabilities and/or autism who attend MacIntyre’s School in Buckinghamshire to complete their Duke of Edinburgh Award. The students have the opportunity to complete their Bronze Award and progress to the Silver and Gold Awards which offer many development and learning opportunities.

Penny, the parent of a previous Duke of Edinburgh participant said:

"I think this is the most wonderful thing ever and I am happy crying when I see this and that there are such amazing people in this work who enjoy supporting and working with our children. THANK YOU"

Could you support us?

From 29 November to 6 December we’ll be seeking donations to ‘match’ the funds already pledged for this campaign. Donations can be any amount, every penny will help.

Could you sign up to confirm your intent in making a donation during the Challenge Week?

What is the Christmas Challenge?

The Big Give Christmas Challenge helps UK registered charities to raise funds for their projects by doubling donations when the campaign goes live on 29 November 2022.
