Newlife The Charity For Disabled Children
Help Change a Child’s Life
Every day, Newlife is changing the lives of disabled and terminally ill children across the UK.
We offer a lifeline for families, providing life-changing and life-saving specialist equipment when and where it’s needed. Childhood cancers, birth defects, accidents, diseases and infections can all cause disability. They are affecting children and their families every day.
With your support, we can ensure more children get the best possible start in life and fulfil their potential.
Fight For Our Future: ACT now for disabled children
We are calling on the next government to implement a series of cost-effective reforms which will win the fight for disabled children’s futures. Find out how children just like Rhys have been affected.

Support For Families
Child & Family Support
Our Child & Family Support team are the gateway for families to receive information and equipment provision.
Equipment Grant Services
Providing families directly with essential and life changing equipment, such as beds, buggies, wheelchairs and more.
Emergency Equipment Loans
Offering free loan of equipment which can help children at significant risk of injury, or in urgent need.
Play Therapy Pods
Providing a free loan of specialist toys to disabled and terminally ill children, delivered direct to their door.
Celebrating National Volunteer’s Week!
Not only are we celebrating our current volunteers this week (3rd-9th June) but we’re also looking for new ones too – could this be you?
Volunteering for Newlife is an exciting and fulfilling opportunity. You can gain new skills, confidence and experiences, as well as helping to make a difference to the lives of disabled children and their families.
Get Involved
Thousands of disabled and terminally ill children would go without essential equipment if it wasn’t for people just like you who choose to support Newlife.
Take up a challenge today and you can change the life of a disabled child.
Challenges & Events
No matter what the challenge, there’s events to suit everyone. So why not do something great and help disabled children.
Corporate Partnerships
Whether your a small local business or a national chain, we’d love to hear from you.
Shop In Store
EVERY purchase you make at a Newlife Fashion Store goes towards a piece of equipment for a child in need.
Mobility Matters
Help us provide specialist equipment to hundreds of children, bringing hope, independence and joy.
“Thanks to Newlife’s loan of a bed from its Emergency Equipment Loan service, Elliott is safe through the night. Newlife has been incredible! The bed is revolutionary – it kept Elliott safe after surgery and now, he barely wakes at night and can’t climb out, which means we can all get more sleep.”
“The Play Therapy Pod is so much more than just a box of toys. It has given us the chance to make lasting memories as a family.”
“This power chair will literally be a lifesaver for our little boy and will enable him to ‘physically‘ keep up with his peers. Thank you Newlife for giving us as a family a new life. We will be forever grateful.”
