We help families to campaign, volunteer and fundraise to improve life for themselves and others

Campaigns
We are a force for change and campaign with families to remove the barriers they face every day.

We support the development of parent carer participation, a process in which parents work together with professionals to make improvements to local services.

Volunteering
Our volunteering opportunities allow parents to give some of their time to support our work.

Research
We give families the chance to contribute to our research and surveys so that we understand the scale of some of the issues they face.  

Fundraising
We couldn't support families of disabled children without our generous supporters and determined fundraisers.
