About KIDS

KIDS are a national charity, founded 49 years ago, providing a wide range of support services to disabled children, young people and their families. We support children with any disability from birth to 25 years of age. We offer our support to the whole family with the aim of giving disabled children a brighter future.

“Your involvement with my family has meant huge practical help during a difficult time. I think the key thing is that KIDS does stuff with and for the whole family, not just the child. I am sure that yours is the kind of service that helps prevent family break up as a result of the strains that child with a disability brings.”

We cannot change a diagnosis and we cannot cure but we can, and we do, make a very real difference to the lives of families with a disabled child through high quality, practical and tailored services delivered by dedicated professional staff.

KIDS provides over 90 different services and works with 80 local authorities throughout England. Last year we supported over 13,500 disabled children, young people and their families.

KIDS’ vision is a world in which all disabled children and young people realise their aspirations.
