Helping A Child With A DisabilityHave fun and make a real difference to the lives of disabled children and their families.
We need people like YOU to spend time with disabled children and involve them in everyday activities at home or in your community.
The children may have learning difficulties, autism or physical impairments. They all need opportunities to have fun, meet new people, try new activities and gain independence. Regular short breaks with families and individuals give them the chance to do this. At the same time, their parents get a break from caring.
We need all kinds of people - you may be single or have a partner, be young or older, working, retired or unemployed. You may or may not have children of your own.
You do not need to have looked after disabled children before. You do not need qualifications or experience - just energy and commitment and a desire to support a disabled child in your community.
Training and support are provided. You will also be paid an allowance.
