Growing Hope provides free therapy for children and young people with additional needs. Additional needs are wide ranging and could include a physical disability, a cognitive disability, a mental health problem or undiagnosed need that impacts participation in everyday activities. (Our services are open to everyone of any faith background).

We bring hope to children through free therapy services. We grow hope for families where hope has been lost due to isolation or rejection. We share hope in Jesus because he brings hope even in the most difficult situations. Growing Hope is motivated by the Christian faith and runs clinics in partnership with local churches as well as supporting siblings and parents through groups and courses and training and equipping churches in accessibility.

Growing Hope Accessibility Award

The Growing Hope Accessibility Award is a tool to help churches develop accessibility and publicise they are a community where everyone can be seen, heard and able to belong. The Accessibility Award supports churches to welcome everyone by carrying out an audit then providing achievable/practical recommendations.

We support parents, carers and siblings through our support groups. When Dreams Change is a course which aims to help parents and carers reflect on their experience of having a child with additional needs and to become more of the person they have been created to be. The Siblings Group is a course for primary school age children and aims to enable brothers and sisters of children with additional needs to share their experiences and feelings of being a sibling. The sessions involve activities such as using puppets, painting, writing and drawing.

You can train to become a course facilitator so that you can run When Dreams Change and Siblings Groups in your local church, school or community. If you would like to train as a facilitator, you can sign up to one of our upcoming dates HERE
