Young disabled people deserve access to opportunity, not barriers.

That's why we've joined with 41 other charities calling on the UK government to work with the sector to create pathways into meaningful, supportive employment.

Help us spread the message by asking your MP to support young disabled people.

A huge thank you to Caroline and everyone at Apex Fintech Solutions for once again going above and beyond to support children and families across Northern Ireland.

Thank you so much for collecting and personally delivering the school backpacks. The bags are already making their way to families supported by our services and will help children start the new school year feeling prepared and confident.

Franci from our Ballymena & Little Steps Antrim SureStart and Jennifer from our for Children Fostering Northern Ireland shared how much this generous support is appreciated by the families they work with.

The thoughtful touches throughout the packs have not gone unnoticed. The messages included on the booklets and pencils are absolutely lovely, and the addition of the children's books is fantastic.

Your generosity, kindness and commitment to supporting local families will make a real difference. Thank you for helping children and young people have the best possible start to the school year. ❤️

We’re delighted to announce that our Director, Lorna Ballard, has been appointed as the new deputy chair at CYPSP 🤝

The Children and Young People's Strategic Partnership brings together leaders from statutory bodies, and community and voluntary sectors to improve the lives of children and families. It coordinates joint planning and resources to deliver early intervention and family support.

🗣️ Ms Ballard said: “In my first meeting as Deputy Chair, I was struck by how much passion and willingness there was in the room to collaborate and find new ways to solve old challenges. The power of partnership is at the heart of CYPSP and is the golden thread that I’ll be following during my time in this position.”
