Ordinary people, ordinary lives image

Ordinary lives, ordinary people

As a charity, Thrive is reliant on the generosity of its supporters to keep going. With funding cuts already kicking in, Thrive has to raise funds so it can continue its important work, and strive to help even more people. Our fundraising campaign during 2011 is called Ordinary lives, ordinary people, and looks at how disability can touch anybody, anywhere and at any time. Read Stuart and Denise Mabere's story.

Plant a difference image

Plant a difference and make a difference

Thrive launched its annual fundraising Plant a Difference campaign at the first open day of 2011. We hope as many people as possible will hold a swapping event and for every swap made, make a donation to Thrive. For every £35 raised we will send a box of lovely fresh herbs or perennials straight to the door of a disabled person who requests one. Help us get more people into gardening and download your free fundraising pack.
