We run a free advice and information helpline for parents and carers with a disabled child aged from birth to 25, living in any part of the UK. Telephone 0808 808 3555 Monday to Friday, 9.30am to 5pm

If you do not speak English as a first language, we can call you back with an interpreter. Phone the helpline and tell the adviser which language you need and provide your phone number. We will aim to arrange a call with an interpreter on the line the same working day.

Deaf and speech impaired callers can access our helpline via the NGT Text relay service. Text users can prefix their call with 18002.

If you are looking for emotional support, book an appointment with our Listening Ear telephone support service. You might be struggling emotionally and looking for strategies to help you cope. Or maybe you just need to talk to someone who understands the extra challenges you face and who can point you in the right direction to get the support you need for your family. To help, we offer one-to-one telephone appointments with a family support adviser for parent carers looking for a listening ear, reassurance and practical and emotional support.
