Our Story
About Us
Dennis Wise In The Community was founded in 2000 by ex-Chelsea FC captain Dennis Wise. The non-profit organisation raises money to improve the lives of children and adults with disabilities. We have raised over £1 million to date, and our long term goal is to donate 100 minibuses to those who need them most.
Dennis and the trustees are committed to helping improve the quality of life for young people and adults across the country.
With your help, every pound donated will be spent towards helping people in need.
Buses from our 100 bus target have been donated to date!

The Charity has a long term goal to donate over 100 minibuses to educational and charitable organisations which will help improve hundreds of lives. If you are interested in finding more out about what we do or are involved with an organisation which has need of a minibus then please get in touch with us.
Wheelchair Donations
These wheelchairs have transformed the lives of not only the users, but their families, care staff, friends, and support networks allowing them a better quality of life. If you are interested in finding more out about what we do or know of someone who has need of a minibus then please get in touch with us.

Fundraising
If not for the amazing generosity of people and supporters like you, we wouldn’t be able to improve the quality of life for the children and adults who rely on our charity for support and assistance during their hardest times. Whether you raise money by running a marathon, shaving all of your hair off, or hosting a barbecue, there are loads of great ways to make a huge difference to the lives of those who need it most. Let us know if you’d like to help our cause!
