Challengers

http://www.disability-challengers.org/


For over 45 years, Challengers has transformed the lives of disabled children, young people, and their families through the power of play. Founded in 1979 to address the lack of play opportunities for disabled children, we now support over 960 children and young people, aged 4 to 18, across 15 inclusive services in Surrey, Hampshire, West Sussex, and Greater London. With a further 511 families on our waiting list, the demand for our work is undeniable - join Team Orange today by taking on a challenge event in aid of Challengers! 

 

At Challengers, we have been challenging the barriers to play for 40 years. We provide a fun environment for disabled children and young people across the South East. At our schemes, children and young people can make friends and have the opportunity to try cool new activities

At the same time, families with disabled children can use these short breaks to pursue activities such as shopping or spending time with their other children. Families have told us that the Challengers lifeline of support keeps them strong.

Our non-exclusion policy means that anyone is welcome at a Challengers scheme. We don’t set any geographical boundaries and young people do not have to be on a ‘disability register’ to access our service – where others say no, Challengers says yes.
