Together, we’ll empower disabled children to stand up for their rights.

Childhood should be a joyful time. But some children and young people living with special educational needs and disabilities are defined by what they cannot do.That’s wrong.

Every child should have an equal opportunity to play, learn, grow and thrive.

Because when the world says we can’t, Kids say we can.

Our strategic plan will enable us to reach 120,000 disabled young people and their families, every year, by 2027.

We understand that everyone may need different levels of support, so if required, assistance is available to help applicants complete their application forms.

Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care.
