Learn about our project
Rose Road makes a positive difference to the lives of young people with disabilities
The Rose Road Association is a charity that provides direct care services including respite breaks, community outreach, holiday activities and advice for over 300 children and young adults with severe physical disabilities, learning difficulties, and/or autism.
We are based in Southampton in the UK, and also work across Hampshire and surrounding counties.
Your donations make a huge difference
We need to raise £500,000 each year just to keep our services running, and much of this comes from individuals making one off or regular donations.
Rose Road provides support and services to families
At the heart of our operations is the Bradbury Centre which is a safe and welcoming space for children and young people with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD).
We also offer 24-hour respite care, as well as a range of activities to suit the tastes and abilities of the children and young adults in our care.
Our hoist accessible soft play area is especially popular with younger service-users.
Sensory room
Also hoist accessible, our sensory room provides a much-needed space for relaxation and stimulation.
Oaks & Acorns respite centre
Children and young adults can stay over in 1 of 15 fantastically decorated bedrooms.
We've lined up loads of exciting events
We have a whole range of fundraising events to get involved in, from skydives and challenge walks, to festivals, fayres and evening do's. See our upcoming events and get involved with family, friends or work colleagues to do something amazing for Rose Road.
