Everything we do is through the hard work and skill of our staff, volunteers and trustees. But none of it would be possible without the commitment and generosity of our supporters and donors.

After her son Daniel was born with clubfoot, Sue Banton discovered limited help, support or guidance available to her and so, in 1980, she founded this charity. Over the last 46 years, the charity has adapted to meet the needs of its beneficiaries and today, as Steps Charity, we continue Sue Banton’s legacy of transforming lives.
