We’re delighted to share some truly wonderful news — thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters, we’ve reached our £50,000 community fundraising target for the Amazing Days: Southwell Building Appeal!

With match funding from a generous local benefactor, that means £100,000 has been raised by our local community — a powerful testament to the value of Reach Southwell and the strength of support behind it.

This clear community backing has also helped us unlock an additional £148,000 from Trusts and Foundations, bringing us significantly closer to our goal of purchasing our building in Prebend Passage, Southwell. Owning this space will secure Reach’s presence in the heart of the community for generations to come.

“I need Reach to be in Southwell … If I wasn’t with Reach I would probably be at home all day.”
— Emma, Reach Southwell client

Every week, over 40 adults with learning disabilities enter our doors to learn, grow, and connect. Your support ensures that these amazing days will continue — not just today, but long into the future.

What’s Next?

While we’ve reached our initial community target, the campaign isn’t over just yet. We’re currently awaiting decisions from a number of potential donors, and donations are still welcome until mid-August. Every additional pound raised helps reduce the amount we need to borrow to complete the purchase.

On behalf of everyone at Reach — and families like Sarah’s, whose sisters recently told us, “We couldn’t do without you” — thank you. You’ve made a lasting difference.
