How your donations can help
Supporting the Transverse Myelitis Society
The Transverse Myelitis Society is very much a ‘kitchen table charity’ with no paid staff, premises or fundraising resources, so most of our donations come from TMers and family, donations in memoriam and legacies. Since we are all people with experience of TM ourselves, we appreciate the personal benevolence behind every donation we receive.
Because we have no overheads, all of the monies received from donations go directly to support people with TM. Our total income is less than £25,000 so your donation makes a real difference.
TMS provides neuro-physio assessments for members. We also fund regular physio for several children with TM, who are still improving their standing and walking, months and even years after TM. The NHS does not provide this service long term. We also provide equipment grants for members to help with rehabilitation and adaptation following TM. Your donation will be spent on these vital support services for TMers.
Thank you once again for your support for the Transverse Myelitis Society.
Donate to the Transverse Myelitis Society
We no longer encourage postal donations, since processing cheques is too expensive in volunteer time. You can donate quickly and easily to TMS via our dedicated charity page at JustGiving here. Remember if you are a UK taxpayer you can tick the Gift Aid declaration and JustGiving will reclaim basic rate tax and send it to TMS in addition, so your donation is increased by 25%.
