WHAT WE DO
Projects
At Parent & Carer Alliance, we regularly participate in exciting projects that are aimed at improving the lives of disabled children. We participate in valuable research to help make lived experience visible and ensure that our communities collective views and experiences are heard loud and clear. Together, we can make a difference!

Discovering You Short Breaks
