Family Voice Fundraising

This is where you can get involved with fundraising for Family Voice Peterborough

The Aiming High for Disabled Children programme was launched in May 2007. Its stated aim was “to improve service provision across the board for disabled children and their families, enhancing equality and opportunity for them” this quote comes from (Department for children, schools and families) DCFS

The Parent Participation work stream of Aiming High was “designed to develop the active involvement of parents in service planning and decision making processes at a local level to ensure that parents are active agents in shaping services” this quote is located in this PDF file on the DCFS website. Some of our grant monies were provided through aiming high for disabled children and administered by Together for Disabled Children (TDC), however the Aiming High Programme and TDC ended in March 2011.

The current government committed to continue with the parent participation programme until 2013 and we have been successfully awarded the money under this programme so far.

We successfully registered as a charity 31st March 2011 which has enabled us to pursue other fundinging streams to enable us to continue with all that we do. We have been running for a year as a charity now and our annual report and accounts can be downloaded from the charities commission website.


We have a committee led by Chair and supported by a Secretary and Treasurer. Our committee currently consists of 5 members. We also have an open forum group of Parents and Carers who are informed and involved in the forum on various different levels. All our committee members are also Parents / Carers of children and young people.
