We want children with disabilities, young people and those with special educational needs to have full and happy childhoods, to fulfil their potential, and be active within the community. And we want parents with children with disabilities to be parents first - living ordinary lives.

What we do

  • The views, ideas and opinions of children and young people are very important to us and form the basis of all the work we do.
  • We host anĀ online library of resourcesĀ that you can access freely but unfortunately we are unable to provide advice or support directly to families.
  • We believe that inclusion is a journey with a clear direction and purpose, equality of opportunity for all children and young people.
  • As a membership body we provide a collective voice that champions the rights of children, young people and their families and challenges barriers to inclusion.
