CBM UK is registered with the Charity Commission of England and Wales as charity number 1058162, and with the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator as charity number SC041101. Working in partnership with Governments and local partners, we create long-term positive change: treating and preventing conditions that lead to disability and enable people with disabilities to go to school, access healthcare, earn a living and be active in their community.

It’s CBM Sunday!

Today, churches and communities around the world come together to remember people living with avoidable blindness and sight loss - and to celebrate God’s message of justice, inclusion and hope for all.

Want to get involved? Here are three simple ways:

👉 Pray for people living with sight loss and for the communities working to make sure everyone can access the care they need.
👉 Give what you can to help make sight-saving and life-changing services possible for people who are too often overlooked.
👉 Share the message! Tell your church, your friends, your family or your social followers why CBM Sunday matters.

Because every prayer counts. Every pound can make a difference. And every person matters.

Thank you for being part of CBM Sunday.

When Magdalena lost her baby son, her grief became overwhelming. She spent years isolated from her family and community, living alone and disconnected from the life she once knew.

Everything changed when a community mental health volunteer connected her with support through CBM's integrated programme in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. With access to psychiatric care and medication, alongside the support of her family and community, Magdalena began her journey towards recovery.

As her health improved, she moved back home, reconnected with her grandchildren and started caring for two pigs provided through the programme as part of her recovery and livelihood support.

Today, Magdalena is once again part of family and community life, looking to the future with hope. Her story is a powerful reminder that mental health support can transform lives when people have access to the care, opportunities and support they need.

Today is Gift Aid Awareness Day – a timely reminder of a simple way you may be able to make your support for people with disabilities go even further.

When you add Gift Aid to your donation, we can claim an extra 25p from the UK government for every £1 you give, at no additional cost to you. That means a gift of £20 could become £25, while a donation of £100 could be worth £125 – helping reach even more people with life-changing support.

For children affected by the floods in Nepal, the emotional impact can last long after the waters recede.

CBM and our local partners are providing group mental health support for children and adults living in temporary accommodation, helping them begin to process what they’ve experienced and cope with the challenges ahead.

As recovery begins, we’ll continue making sure people with disabilities are included and supported.

Help us continue this vital work through our Nepal Emergency Appeal: https://www.cbmuk.org.uk/charity-crisis-appeal-nepal-flash-floods-donate-now/

One month on from devastating flash floods in Nepal, the impact is still being felt.

More than 125,000 people have been affected after catastrophic flooding and landslides swept through communities in central Nepal, destroying homes, schools, roads and bridges.

For people with disabilities, disasters can create additional barriers to accessing vital information, healthcare, emergency support and essential supplies.

That’s why CBM and our local partners are working to make sure people with disabilities are not left behind.

So far, we’re supporting:

• 3,000 people with essential items
• 12,800 people with mental health support
• 2,500 people through rehabilitation and outreach clinics
• Nearly 500 people with assistive devices and mobility aids
• More than 25,000 people with information about available support

And our work doesn’t stop when the immediate emergency does. We’re already planning for longer-term recovery, helping people with disabilities rebuild their lives with dignity, independence and greater resilience.
