Wirral Fund for Children with Special Needs
For over 30 years the Wirral Fund for Children with Special Needs has worked to improve the daily lives of local children.
Through donations and local fundraising activities the Fund makes grants for items that are not covered by NHS and Social Services budgets and are particular to individual children.
Applications for grants are made by health, education and care professionals who understand the needs of each child. With this knowledge applications are assessed and approved where the funding will be used fairly and appropriately to help disability-specific situations.
Funded items vary great and recently have included specialist car seats and harnesses, communication aids and computer software, sensory toys and adapted trikes.
