Scope is a charity that supports disabled people and their families.

Our vision

Our vision is a world where disabled people have the same opportunities as everyone else. We need your support to make this happen.

What we do

Campaigns

We work with disabled people on the issues that are most important to them and aim to raise awareness, change attitudes and influence government policy.

Help and information

We support disabled people and their families through practical information and support, particularly at the time of diagnosis and in a child’s early years.

Services for disabled people and their families

We offer a range of services for disabled children and adults, which are primarily focused on those whose complex support needs are not met elsewhere.

Campaigns

We work with policy-makers, service providers and the public to improve disabled people’s legal rights and opportunities, remove disabling barriers, share good practice and create the appetite and enthusiasm for the full inclusion and equal participation of disabled people in every aspect of our society.

Social care and benefits

We campaign to defend the key rights and entitlements of disabled people.
