Where your donation goes

Our events already pay for themselves. Apoorva Varnangal and the charity walk are covered by ticket sales and our own fundraising, and our sports day is funded by the Lyca Gnanam Foundation.

So your donation is not paying for this year's party. It is being saved, towards something our families have never had.

Our long-term dream: the TSC Community Village

This is what we are saving for. A space of our own, where our children can learn, play and grow together. Therapy rooms, activity areas, and somewhere families can simply be themselves without having to explain anything.

Right now we borrow halls and parks, and give the keys back at the end of the day. Every donation that is not spent on running this year's events is put towards making the Village real.

These are the smiles you bring

The official Tamil Special Children UK charity t-shirt in white, front and back.

Wear your support

Our official charity t-shirt is £15 in white or black. You will see them everywhere at our charity walk and sports meets, and they are worn at our events all year round. Wearing one is a simple way to show families they are not on their own.

They are heavyweight 100% cotton and priced close to cost, so they last well and stay affordable for our families.

Please note: t-shirts are made to order and we do not offer shipping. You collect yours at one of our events.
