Welcome to Aiming High for Disabled Children in Bradford

Aiming High for Disabled Children, launched in May 2007, is the Government’s transformation programme for disabled children’s services in England.

The vision behind Aiming High for Disabled Children is:


‘for all families with disabled children to have the support they need to live ordinary family lives, as a matter of course.’


Bradford has been chosen as both a ‘pathfinder’ for short breaks and ‘pilot’ for childcare and will thus take part in a first wave of local authorities aiming to transform services for disabled a children and their families between 2008–11.
