Partnerships and Alliances
At Kids, we believe lasting change happens through collaboration. Through national alliances and strategic partnerships, we work with others to improve systems, influence policy and improve outcomes for disabled children and young people, and their families.
Our Strategic Alliances
We convene and lead national alliances that bring organisations together to share expertise, collaborate and drive positive change for disabled children and young people.
Digital Services Consortium
We’re proud to be part of the Digital Services Consortium (DSC) – co-chaired by Kids and Sense – a national alliance of 12 leading UK charities and innovative tech partners, working together to close the digital divide for disabled children and young people, and their families.
Through the Driving Digital Inclusion Programme, we’re helping over 20,000 families access the right equipment, develop digital skills, and gain the confidence to get online and thrive in a digital world.
Transitions Alliance
Convened by Kids, the Transitions Alliance brings together organisations, professionals, young people and families with a shared ambition to improve the transition to adulthood for disabled young people. Through collaboration, shared learning and collective action, the Alliance works to influence policy, improve systems and ensure every disabled young person can move into adulthood with choice, opportunity and ambition.

Create brighter futures with disabled children
Childhood should be joyful. Not defined by what disabled children and young people cannot do. That’s wrong.
Kids is on a mission to create a world where all kinds of children and young people have all kinds of opportunities. Support Kids to create brighter futures with disabled children.
