Manifesto for Change
We’ve identified five clear areas where Government action is needed to transform the lives of disabled children and young people.
Help us change lives
Every child should have an equal opportunity to play, learn, grow and thrive. Your support can help make that a reality.
Online SEND Workshops
Our new online SEND Workshops offer expert support and practical advice for parents and carers of children with SEND.
Young People's Hub
Our online platform created by young disabled people. Learn something new, get support, and make your voice heard.
A world where all kinds of kids have all kinds of opportunities
Childhood should be a joyful time. But some children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities are defined by what they cannot do. That’s wrong.
Every child should have an equal opportunity to play, learn, grow and thrive.
We create life-changing opportunities by providing a wide range of support. Together, we’ll empower disabled children to stand up for their rights.
