Dame Vera Lynn Children’s Charity has officially moved to our new home in Chailey. Friday 6 September saw the official opening of the centre, with all the families invited for a sneak preview! The first sessions at the charity’s new premises began on Monday 9 September.

The charity supports children under 5 years old affected by cerebral palsy, chromosome abnormalities and rare genetic disorders that cause physical impairment. The largest early intervention organization of this type in the Southeast, and the only one open all year, the charity provides free, highly skilled, early intensive intervention services, helping children achieve as much independence as possible. With three brand new service rooms, we can support more families than ever before. 

CEO, Glenys Creese, said: “Having outgrown our home in Cuckfield, the search for new premises has been a difficult one. We are thrilled to now be open in Chailey. The new centre gives us much more space and means we will be able to help more families, providing life changing services free of charge to young children who need them. My thanks to the team who worked incredibly hard to make the move possible, along with support from some great corporates.”

Thank you to everyone who came to help with the move – we couldn’t have done it without you!
