New store brings festive cheer to Station Road while supporting children with brain injury.

The Children’s Trust have been collaborating with The Royal Brompton Hospital and Vivisol Uk to bring into the UK the very first Interpulmonary Percussive Ventilation (IPV) unit to be used within a community setting. Highly Specialist Respiratory Physiotherapist, Heather Everest, shared the learnings at an international conference.

The Children’s Trust are pleased to welcome the publication of the NICE Guideline NG252: ‘Rehabilitation for Chronic Neurological Disorders Including Acquired Brain Injury’, a major step forward for children, young people and families affected by acquired brain injury (ABI).

Physiotherapists from The Children’s Trust attend national conference to share innovative approaches to rehabilitation for children and young people with a brain injury.

Summer can be a challenging time for the children and families we support. After experiencing a brain injury, a child’s needs may change, and the amount of medical and therapy interventions needed can often feel intense. Things that were exciting before, going on holiday and days out with friends, can now feel impossible or scary, and life can feel limited.

August was a fun and enriching time for the children and families we support, and our Sports Inclusion Day was no exception. Around 50 children and young people took part, enjoying the outdoors, trying new activities, and showing that sport really can be for everyone.

The Children’s Trust are delighted to announce the appointment of two new trustees to the board.

Love can find us in the most unexpected places, and for two devoted volunteers at The Children's Trust, it has blossomed through their shared passion for helping others. Having dedicated their time to volunteering, they never imagined their journey would lead them to each other.

Volunteers’ Week returns this year after reaching its 40th anniversary last year. From 2 to 8 June 2025, The Children's Trust will join thousands of charities and voluntary organisations recognising the contribution volunteers make across the UK.
