The Belay Foundation

Who we are

The Belay Foundation offers practical, trauma-responsive services to adoptive, special guardian and kinship care families, including Specialist Support Workers and disability benefits advice. We understand that our children have experienced early life trauma, attachment disruption and often other conditions such as FASD, ASD and ADHD. This can offer challenges for family life. Our purpose is to improve the lives of our families by providing practical support that is attachment-focused and trauma-responsive. We offer empathy and understanding from a perspective of lived experience. Our children's best hope of recovery lies in their relationship with their parents and our services are designed to support the parent-child relationship.
