•give disabled children a voice and more control over their lives
•provide relief for young carers and a chance to enjoy their childhood
•help young refugees and migrant families rebuild their lives.

What parents say‘Since my daughter has attended PALS she has developed very well and has a lot of confidence mixing with other children. She has more confidence with her speaking and also her understanding. I feel she has really learned a lot…I don’t have any worries about her ability to learn, listen and understand.’

‘Before my child started going to PALS he didn’t really mix with other children but since attending, his social skills have improved a lot. He never really concentrated on things but now he finds it easier. He used to have problems with speech and language but I’ve noticed he’s doing a lot better now and says a lot more words than he did before he attended PALS. I feel he has a lot more confidence...and can now have conversations with me and speaks freely.’
