Little Hiccups

Little Hiccups Parent led support group for children and families with a disability or additional needs. Registered Charity Number: 1170147
(1)

Little Hiccups is a Leeds based support group that has been set up by parents who have children with additional needs. Through personal experience they recognise the importance of allowing the parents and families of a child with a disability or additional need the opportunity to meet people in similar situations, to make friends and support each other. While parents have a chance to chat to other

carers in similar situations, children are able to learn through play, make friends and have fun! Activities include arts and crafts, day trips, guest speakers and social events for parents/carers.
