Auditel donates £1,800 to The Footsteps Centre
Published: 23 December 2015
Auditel, a strategic cost management provider, has donated £1,800 to The Footsteps Foundation. Based in Oxfordshire, the Foundation provides intensive physical therapy for children and young adults with cerebral palsy and other neurological disorders. Children from across the UK attend intensive three-week sessions of two to three hours per day.
The Footsteps Centre uses an innovative physical therapy programme that originated in Poland, combining traditional mat work with the use of the ‘Spider’. This piece of equipment enables therapists to align the child’s body using elastic ropes in a frame before carrying out exercises.
The Foundation was set up in 2004 by Pip Hoyer Millar, whose daughter Minty has cerebral palsy. Pip says: “Our vision is of a future where all children affected by neurological disorders are given the opportunity to reach their maximum potential and are able to develop physically whilst improving their confidence and independence.”
Auditel chose The Footsteps Foundation at last month’s annual National Conference, where a raffle was held, with the proceeds going to this worthy cause. Tim Halfhead is one of their consultants and has been a trustee of Footsteps since June 2012.
Auditel’s Matt Sidwell, director of network development, and Lesley Lunn, marketing manager, travelled to Oxford where they met with Tim and presented a donation of £1,800 to Maggie Davies, foundation manager, on behalf of Auditel and its network of consultants and suppliers.
