Children First Lewisham

israel Thank you for visiting our website! We are supporting the building and equipping of special facilities in the new Children and Young People’s Centre in Rushey Green, Lewisham and providing ongoing support to families with Children.

Children like Israel pictured here used to have to make many visits to several centres to receive support from a range of Lewisham children’s services. Since November 2006, he and many other Lewisham children, can visit just one centre where their care is much better coordinated - Kaleidoscope, Lewisham Centre for Children and Young People. To find out more about Kaleidoscope, visit the Centre section.

This exciting project is the first of its kind on such a scale in the UK. It exists to provide services for local children and young people whose health, education or social needs are special. Children First Lewisham has played an important role in supporing this development.

How can I help?

Children First Lewisham supports local children and young people with a range of disabilities, additional learning needs, and emotional and behavioural concerns; and also aims to support staff who provide services based at Kaleidoscope. You can find out more about us from this website. Then we ask you to help us by donating, fundraising, or supporting us in our activities.
