Charities
There are a vast number of charities, voluntary organisations and clubs which exist purely to give help and support to people with disabilities, their families, friends and carers. Many of them will be found when you visit particular parts of uk-ability websites, because they are particularly relevant to the topic you are viewing.
Other organisations are mainly concerned with research, and do not provide direct individual help, but they may be able to tell you about how to get involved with new research into treatments for a particular condition.
Our charities database is continually updated. It will never be complete, because there are new organisations being established every day! It includes most of the large national organisations, and many of the local and regional organisations too, but please contact us if you think there is an organisation we ought to include.
