Donations

Every donation, no matter the size, makes a direct impact on the lives of people with learning disabilities in Melton Mowbray. Your generosity helps us keep our clubs running, our centre open, and our community connected.

A one-off gift to help us with immediate needs, like new equipment for our social clubs.

Small, regular gifts allow us to plan for the future with confidence.

Once you have looked after your loved ones, would you consider leaving a gift to Melton Mencap?

Leaving a “legacy” in your will is one of the most significant ways you can support our future. It costs you nothing today, but it ensures that the next generation of people with learning disabilities in our town will always have a place to go, friends to meet, and a team to support them.

Why leave a gift to Melton Mencap?

• Local Impact: Unlike national charities, a gift to us stays right here in Melton Mowbray.
• Independence: Your legacy can fund programmes that help our members learn life skills and gain independence.
• Peace of Mind: You are helping to ensure that the “home away from home” we provide today will still be here for years to come.
