Sense is a national charity that supports people who are deafblind or have complex disabilities. People with complex disabilities, often face barriers to accessing timely and appropriate support. Families and carers are under immense pressure - many face isolation, burnout and increasing financial hardship.
Sense
Over the past seven years we have been a dedicated supporter of Sense and with the help of the Foundation, they have been able to significantly grow its specialist children's services and adapt to the ever changing needs of families. In 2025, they supported over 28,000 individuals, doubling its previous reach. In August 2023, the Noel Sweeney Foundation partnered with UK charity, Sense, to create a new, accessible sensory garden in Birmingham. Senior leaders from the Tara Group joined a construction taskforce on site to plant flowers and trees and transform the charity's outdoor space in Selly Oak into an accessible and relaxing community area.
It is great that the Tara Group is involved in something so worthwhile that will create a legacy in Noel’s memory and serve the Sense community.
