We are a local independent charity with one aim: To enhance the Lives of children with disabilities
We provide short weekend and evening breaks to children and young people with a disability, in turn providing respite for their families.
Why the community needs usWe support 140 families across the Leeds area. The work we do means children with a disability can make friends, have fun and learn and means their families can relax, knowing they are in a safe and happy environment.
Our impact on the communityHere is a quote from one of our families: 'Because of our son's challenging behaviour we have been so isolated, but Weekenders has changed that. We count the days off the calendar until the next session. He loves going there. He finally has some independence and we have some respite. We trust them with Jack, and that is no small thing.'
We are looking for people to join our Fundraising Committee and support us at our services.
