Children’s Disability Team

We support children and young people (up to age 17) with a wide range of disabilities. Support is based on the severity of the disability and the level of need.
If your child receives the higher rate of Disability Living Allowance, it’s likely our team will be involved.
Please note: We don’t usually offer services for children whose main needs are emotional, social, or behavioural (including ADHD), or provide specialist mental health support.
Phone the Contact and Referral Team on 0191 424 5010.
