Contact: Fledglings

Fledglings supplies affordable products to meet the needs of families with disabled children including children with Autism. These products include eating and drinking equipment, toilet training aids, safety items, and a range of clothing including swimwear for incontinent children. These items help children to achieve greater independence in eating, drinking, becoming continent, and learning to swim and so ultimately to be involved in inclusive activities within their communities.

Through their Information service, Fledglings also informs families about other products and services that may help and signposts them to sources of financial support where appropriate. They offer assistance via phone and email helplines, which are staffed by people with knowledge and experience, including parents of children with additional needs.

Sales of products are sold on a non-profit basis. The information service is free.

As of February 2019, Fledglings became part of Contact (National Charity)
