Beneficiaries
In Surrey there are over 250,000 children, young people and adults with a disability. 75,000 have a physical/neurological disability, 7,000 have an Autism spectrum disorder and 4,000 have a moderate/severe learning disability. The impact on those effected, including their supporting families/carers, is enormous with carers struggling to cope, siblings feel forgotten, 30% finding themselves in relative poverty and 60% feeling isolated or excluded from society plus much more.
We are dedicated to an inclusive world for all. £45,000 will support our early years services which includes vital holistic therapies alongside our specialist nursery which gives the children a foundation of learning to take forward into school life, whatever their abilit. It will also support our adult day activities hub called Rendezvous which connects disabled adults with bespoke programmes of social and active opportunities which develops life skills, inclusion and independence.
