Grants & Donations

Our primary funding comes through our contract with the Local Authority.  

However, without additional grant funding and extra donations from charitable bodies and individuals, we could not do the work as we do, including the provision of activities and resources at the level we are able to through this generous help – especially given the cost of living challenges that we are all facing at the moment

If you would like to make a donation to our work it is possible to do so by sending a cheque made payable to “Darnall Dementia Trust” to: Darnall Dementia Trust, Lightwood House, Lightwood Lane, Sheffield S8 8BG  

We would like to thank all those who have made grants and donations over the years. Their generosity and support has not only helped us to continue running the day centre and providing outreach support but also allowed us to provide extra special events such as the day trip to Cleethorpes, the Christmas party, outings for lunch and other activities.
