Disability and additional support needs

At CrossReach we believe that everyone has the potential to live life to the full.

We’ve been working alongside children and young people with physical disabilities and long term complex health needs for many years. The best part of our job is celebrating abilities and achievements, and seeing the joy children can bring to themselves, their families and their communities.

We’ll encourage children and their carers to choose the services and packages that they need and be involved in decisions that affect the way they live their life.

Here are the services we offer for children and young people with disabilities:

Child living in residential care
"The service is absolutely brilliant. My child cannot take part in a lot of group activities but she is always made to feel part of everything and activities are aimed at what she can do. The staff and management are fantastic and we would be lost without them."
