Donate
"I'm very happy to donate our services to City of Chelmsford Mencap. They do such vital work and supporting them gives our company and our team a chance to give something back to the local community."
Chris Davy, County Washrooms
City of Chelmsford Mencap's mission is to nurture, empower and celebrate every individual impacted by learning disability by enabling their own unique sense of belonging, dignity, resilience, independence and achievement.
We do this through services including lifelong learning, social opportunities and specialist advice. Supported by our dedicated and highly skilled team, service users feel safe, valued and able to reach their potential.
Every year, we have to raise over £300,000 to maintain our vital services. We couldn't do this without the support of our generous donors and fundraisers, who know that giving to CCM means giving care, connection and community to our vulnerable service users.
There are many ways to donate - it's not just about money but skills, services and resources.
How to donate
You can give one-off or monthly monetary donations through our JustGiving page, which enables you to apply GiftAid if you are a UK taxpayer. This automatically increases your donation by 25%, at no extra cost to you.
If you would rather not use JustGiving, you can contact us for details about how to donate
by debit/credit card, bank transfer or cheque. We can also provide a form to complete if you wish us to claim GiftAid on your donation.
If you are interested in offering skills, services or resources to support City of Chelmsford Mencap's work, please contact us to discuss how we can benefit from your support.
Our Amazon wishlist is a simple and easy way to donate the resources that are currently needed. These include resources for learning and projects, kitchen staples for our cooking classes, and items for cleaning, hygiene and personal care. If you would like to know more about why we need a product, or how it will benefit our service users, please contact us.
