Keep the light shining with Enham Trust this Christmas

As we enter 2026, disabled people continue to face barriers to accessing the opportunities they deserve - something that we believe should no longer be happening. Together, we can continue to change that.

This Christmas, donate to light up our tree and spark brighter futures this festive season and beyond.

Jack’s Story - A Chance That Changed Everything

At 23, Jack had never had a paid job. Living with cerebral palsy and visual impairment, he faced constant rejection. “It was daunting and draining,” Jack says. “I just wanted a routine, a purpose.”

He volunteered at a hospital to keep busy, but independence felt out of reach. “People didn’t always understand my disability,” he explains. “If someone pointed in a direction, I couldn’t always see where they meant. It was frustrating both for them and for me.”

Everything changed when Jack was introduced to Enham Trust. “Someone finally gave me a chance,” he smiles. “I was nervous, but so excited. If I hadn’t got that interview, I think I would have lost confidence completely.”

Today, Jack works at Enham Trust’s 3PL social enterprise, thriving in a safe, supportive environment. “I love coming in, being around people, solving problems,” he says. “I’ve got my own money now. I can make choices. It feels like a treat.”

For Jack, this job means independence, friendship, and hope. “I’ve made friends who understand me. We were all in the same boat before. Now, we’re moving forward together.”

Jack’s message to you is “Thank you. Because of you, I have something to get up for in the morning.”

This Christmas, your gift can give someone like Jack a chance that changes everything.

Together, we can turn challenges into change and create a lasting difference for disabled people’s futures.
