Contact

Contact is a UK charity for families with disabled children. It supports families with the best possible guidance and information, brings them together to support each other and helps them improve life for themselves and others.

Invaluable support

Invaluable support
Families with disabled children often face a relentless struggle to get the help they need. Contact guides families through the confusing maze of support and financial benefits they're entitled to and offers emotional care when times are tough.

Lucy's story

Lucy's story
Lucy struggled to get financial support after giving up work to care for her severely disabled son. She called Contact’s helpline and succeeded in getting not only the benefits her son was entitled to, but a life-changing support network for her family too.

Help when it’s needed

Help when it’s needed
When Gemma applied for special education support for her disabled son Ethan to thrive at school, she didn’t expect how overwhelming and isolating the process would be. Contact’s workshops gave her confidence and knowledge, and things are finally slotting into place.
