🎉This week, we’re launching our Festive Appeal as part of our first-ever Brainwave Awareness Week! 🤩

It costs £4,000 to support just one child through a full year of Brainwave therapy support - from two full-day assessments with at least two therapists, to a bespoke programme, ...essential equipment, hydrotherapy where appropriate, communication and sensory support, and ongoing guidance from our amazing Family Support team. 🎈

Families contribute up to £1,000, and through the generosity of our supporters and retail customers, we can subsidise the remaining £3,000.

This festive season, we need your help to keep that promise.🎄
Be bold, be bright for Brainwave - be the reason a child and their family can attend Brainwave in 2026. 😃

Thanks to your amazing generosity, we have raised a massive £𝟖𝟔𝟏.𝟗𝟔 for Brainwave! 💙

Your support truly makes a difference.
To give ...you an idea of the impact:
It costs £𝟒,𝟎𝟎𝟎 for one year for a child to be on the Brainwave programme. 𝟕𝟓% of that cost is covered by donations like yours, while parents contribute the remaining 𝟐𝟓%.

Brainwave also offers a Therapy Access Fund, which helps families who cannot afford their 𝟐𝟓% contribution—meaning even more children are able to receive life-changing therapy thanks to community support.

🧠𝗔 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘄𝗮𝘃𝗲:
Brainwave helps children with disabilities and developmental needs reach their full potential. Their specialist therapists create tailored programmes designed to improve mobility, communication, behaviour, and learning skills. With the right support, many children go on to achieve milestones their families were once told might never be possible.

Last night we welcomed the Mayor and Mayoress of Warrington to Stockton Heath Methodist Church Hall for SHMDS’ performance of Comfort & Joy — and the Mayor even donned a 𝗕𝗲 𝗕𝗼𝗹𝗱, 𝗕𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘄𝗮𝘃𝗲 ...beanie!

SHMDS is proudly supporting Brainwave, our retiring charity, helping children with disabilities reach their full potential through life-changing therapy programmes.

🙏 We’re collecting donations after every performance — so just a friendly reminder to bring some change if you wish to donate. Thank you for your kindness and support.
