The children supported by Kids Inspire vary widely – some have suffered trauma, neglect or abuse and as a direct result, may feel disconnected from society. Because their behaviour challenges teachers and support staff, these children are often labeled, neglected and are either not in education or are at risk of exclusion.

Kids Inspire steps in by helping to heal the wounds of trauma and to reconnect these individuals with both themselves and society. By doing so we aim to increase feelings of self-worth and prevent individuals from joining gangs or becoming involved in youth crime.

We have over 100 years of combined professional experience in providing family therapy, mental health services, arts therapies, psychotherapy and therapeutic and relational social work to complex families. We also have access to local volunteers with a huge variety of experience and skills.

We help children thrive and to develop a joy of learning. Our aim is for each child to feel valued and be a valued part of the school and wider community.
