This is a great chance to join a small but incredibly dynamic and dedicated team helping children and young people across the UK.

Children Today is a charity that raises funds to provide specialised equipment for children and young people with disabilities throughout the UK

Children Today was founded in 1994 to help disabled children and young people up to the age of 25 enjoy a better quality of life by providing them with the specialised equipment they need.

Often children and young people with disabilities remain excluded from a lifestyle which other people may take for granted. They want to join in and take part in the same sorts of activities, within their capabilities, as other children. They want to gain more independence from their parents as they get older, but are often prevented from doing so.

We believe the provision of specialised equipment has a direct and immediate impact on a child’s quality of life and independence, and is vital in helping them to overcome obstacles and achieve their potential. Equipment can include wheelchairs, walking frames, tricycles and other mobility aids, as well as multi-sensory equipment and a range of other aids.

We now have an exciting opportunity for a Corporate and Events Fundraiser to join our small dedicated team working to change the lives of children and young people.
