As we mourn the loss of our patron and founder member, HRH Prince Philip, The Duke of Edinburgh, we celebrate the remarkable support he showed Variety over seven decades, and acknowledge the enormous debt of gratitude we owe him. The full story of HRH's long association with Variety can be found here. The Duke was a lifelong advocate and champion for the disabled and disadvantaged children we support. Please help us to continue our work.

"A new powered wheelchair from Variety has given us our fun-loving Stanley back!”

Stanley from Somerset is a vibrant, happy, bright seven-year-old who enjoys exploring and going out with his family. He has an undiagnosed neuromuscular condition that leaves him feeling increasingly fatigued as the day goes on. He also struggles to eat. To conserve his strength, he needs to use a wheelchair to get around. Since receiving a powered wheelchair from Variety, he has been getting up to all the types of mischief that a seven-year-old should be. Having a wheelchair that doesn’t make him feel tired means that Stanley can also now actively take part in exploring the world with his family, choosing either to lead or to follow.
