We are a local charity, covering the Wokingham, Berkshire and surrounding areas. We know that having a child who needs your support more than most can make you feel lonely, it's hard to know where to go and who can offer you support with what stage you're currently at.
We provide a strong network of support via our online Facebook community, social gatherings and by signposting you in the right direction for further support from many amazing local organisations.
