Reports
Our latest Annual Review is now available. In 2022/23, we supported 18,000 children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities, young carers and families. That’s over 154,000 hours of support.
We’re Kids
On the side of over two million children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities, and their families.
What we do
Kids is on a mission to create a world where all kinds of children and young people have all kinds of opportunities.
Creating life-changing opportunities by providing a wide range of support. From early years into adulthood. Learning and development. Playschemes, adventure playgrounds and youth groups. Parent support and mediation. Social connections and emotional wellbeing.
When the world blocks children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities, Kids speaks up.
Join Kids to say, “we can”.
Our values
Celebrate Individuality
Over two million children and young people in the UK live with disabilities and special educational needs. All are brilliantly unique. We tailor our approach to the needs of every individual.
Think Creatively
Creativity is the ability to think up new ideas, combining expertise with imagination. We create life-changing opportunities for families by providing and inventing a wide range of services.
Work Together
Working together is about our willpower to make a positive difference. It is about putting kindness into action. Our determination to do our best for every family.
Speak Up
Speaking up isn’t about being negative. Far from it. It’s all about amplifying the voices of children and young people to achieve positive social change.
Georgia says
“Kids has continued to support me in different areas of my life; encouraging me, motivating me and believing I can do more and be more. Now I live independently, help teach other young disabled people to ride horses and am more confident in having the future I want and deserve.”
