Description:
Step By Step is a non-profit, parent-led organisation with a 24-year track record of empowering children and young people with disabilities aged 2-18 by providing them with opportunities to achieve their full potential. Our services operate out-of-hours, with daily availability after school, on Sundays, during weekends, and school holidays, providing families with essential respite. Our range of leisure and respite services includes sports, playschemes, and clubs, carefully tailored to support our diverse user base of 220 children with disabilities that span a spectrum of physical, emotional, learning, and mental impairments. These impairments include but are not limited to spina bifida, global development delay, Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, hearing impairments, and other complex conditions. To optimise our service delivery and control costs, we rely heavily on a large team of dedicated volunteers, who provide 1:1 or 1:2 support to the children. Furthermore, we offer a reliable and inclusive transport service, equipped with accessible vehicles to ferry our users to and from our facilities.
