Urgent 30th Anniversary Appeal

As we are all aware, the last year has been an extremely difficult one for us all and especially for charities like ours who depend on getting the funding we need to support families with children who have complex needs and disabilities get the support they need.

We cannot do this by ourselves and need your support to enable Kindred to keep providing our vital services. 

Kindred has been looking after families of children with complex needs across Scotland for 30 years and we would like to thank everyone who has made this possible through your generous donations.

Kindred are a wonderful support. Their empathetic and supportive work is invaluable. They literally prop you up when it feels like the world around you is collapsing. Kindred parent, Louise

There is more demand than ever from families for our services and we need to support parents like Louise and her 11-year-old son Rocco, who has complex needs.

We see Kindred as absolutely essential partners here at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children, providing quality, person centred, holistic care for families. Fiona Mitchell,Service Director, Women and Children’s Services, NHS Lothian

Please fundraise for Kindred. You’ll find lots of ideas in our Fundraising Toolkit. Have fun whilst doing something truly worthwhile! Alternatively you could make a donation: a regular direct debit means you can give a small amount every month and make a huge difference to Kindred’s work.

Your donation will help Kindred support 700 families like Louise’s every year
• £75 pays for an appointment to fill in complex Disability Living Allowance and Carer’s Allowance forms
• £145 covers the cost of a parent attending our eight week therapeutic support group
