Donate to Support Local SEN & Sensory Provision

For the 5^th year, the amazing Hemley Close Lights are lighting up their home for charity at Christmas — and this year they’re kindly supporting Fledglings. Thousands have been raised in previous years, and in January 2026 every pound you donate here will be distributed as gift vouchers to schools (via their SENCOs) and community groups within the Westhoughton area to help fund much-needed sensory and SEN resources.

If you’re visiting the lights and would like to give online (or can’t make it in person), please use our secure donation product:

How Your Donation Helps

• Direct local impact: Funds stay within the Westhoughton area to support children, young people and adults with additional needs.
• Gift vouchers in Jan 2026: Distributed to local schools via their SENCOs and to community groups to purchase sensory toys, AAC accessories, adapted equipment and more from Fledglings.
• No-profit mission: Fledglings is a not-for-profit CIC — we reinvest to support families and professionals.
