Caudwell Children - Equipment Fund

Caudwell Children exists to make life fair for disabled and autistic children. We provide support for the following pieces of equipment: specialised buggies, specialised car seats and harnesses, sensory equipment, therapy tricycles, specialist sports equipment and powered wheelchairs. Caudwell Children is able to provide up to 80% of the cost.

Specialised Sports Equipment

The participation in sports activities provides lots of physical and emotional benefits for children and young people. We provide funding for specialist disability sports equipment, including wheelchairs, which enable the continued participation, development and success in sport.

Charity funding for equipment is currently limited to families that meet the following criteria:

• The child is under the age of 19
• Or under the age of 25 for sports equipment only
• They have a chronic illness or disability
• They live in the UK
• You will be considered for our support if you can demonstrate that either: You are in receipt of means-tested benefits OR your household income is no more than £60,000 excluding benefits. Please check FAQ's for details.
