The charity we are specifically supporting this year for Althorp is CICS (Cochlear Implanted Children's Support Group).
| CICS |
| Established in 1993 and registered as a charity in May 2003, CICS is an entirely voluntary group run by parents who recognise that there is no one approach that will suit all children. The Group is independent and relies entirely on donations, grants, and fundraising efforts to cover expenses. Founded by parents whose children have cochlear implants, the CICS Group was formed to help others whose children already have implants and those who are thinking about an implant for their child. Members share their first-hand experience of the issues that surround life with an implanted child to provide a vital part of the pre and post implantation process - support for parents by parents. |
