HOW WE HELP
Our programmes provide practical support to eligible children, families, schools and community organisations where disability, chronic illness or disadvantage creates a barrier to participation or opportunity.
Four principal pathways to support.
Eligibility differs between programmes. Some programmes are available nationally, while others have specific geographic or applicant requirements. Always review the programme guidelines before applying.
