What we do

We offer different levels of family support, counselling and events to families with children who have disabilities.

At Aiming Higher we recognise how rewarding raising a child with a disability can be, but we also understand the challenges that families face. Whether you need help to navigate diagnosis processes, guidance around managing behaviour, support in getting ready for meetings about your child, or a chance to make friends with others in similar circumstances, we are here to help.

We look forward to welcoming you to Aiming Higher very soon.
