Kids Can Achieve was formed in October 2002 by local parents, concerned professionals and members of the community in Harrow.
It was formed to support local children and young people whose educational, emotional and social and psychological difficulties were not being recognised. As a result of this gap in provision these children were developing complex behaviours and lacked the social and coping skills which enable them to learn, play and socialise and have normal life opportunities.
It became apparent that children from within the range of diagnoses which include ADHD, Autistic Spectrum Disorders, Aspergers, Oppositional Defiance Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Schizophrenia and general communication disorders were particularly affected by this absence of understanding and suitable provision.
We sourced premises - a shop front in Pinner, Middx, funds were raised to equip and refurbish, formed a management committee, appointed a Director, started fund raising, developed partnerships with local agencies and started providing services for children aged 2-19 whose needs fell within our target groups.
The organisation has been fortunate in attracting a core of staff and volunteers with excellent skills, experience both professional and personal and high levels of commitment. This has included the appointment of the organisation's first Director, a parent with both extensive life skills in bringing up children with special needs and professional training.
