Sibs: Supporting Siblings of Disabled Children
A UK charity focused specifically on the needs of siblings of disabled children and adults — thoughtful guidance on support at different ages, the particular challenges siblings face, and how to find help.
Read at source →Sibs is a UK charity — the only one there specifically focused on the needs of siblings of disabled children and adults. Their resources cover how to support a sibling at different ages, the particular challenges siblings face, and how to access support.
If your family includes a child with significant needs, the impact on siblings is real and often under-discussed — and that’s true wherever you live. While some of Sibs’ signposting is UK-specific, the heart of their guidance on understanding and supporting siblings travels well, and we found it genuinely thoughtful and practical. Readers in the US may also want to look at the Sibling Support Project, which works in the same space.
