What an incredible evening at the Furnley House Foundation Community Champion Awards!


We are absolutely thrilled to have been named Charity of the Year, and incredibly grateful to receive a cheque for £5,000, which will go directly to supporting disabled children across Leicestershire.

The work we do simply wouldn’t be possible without the amazing support of our staff, volunteers, trustees and supporters. Their dedication enables us to provide even more for children and young people with disabilities across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland, and this generous donation will help us do even more.

There were so many inspiring and deserving winners. Whether you took home an award or not, every nominee was a winner in our eyes, and in the eyes of everyone in the room. It was truly heart-warming to celebrate such remarkable individuals and organisations making a real difference across Leicestershire.

It was an inspiring and uplifting night celebrating the Furnley House Foundation Community Champions Awards, one we won’t forget. We are also thrilled to be working with Furnley House over the next year and can’t wait to start planning what we can achieve together for the children. An exciting year ahead!
