Norwood is a leading UK charity that supports Jewish children, families and adults with disadvantage or learning disabilities and wherever possible the wider community. They believe that everyone should be able to reach their full potential and live life to the full, regardless of disadvantage and disability.
Norwood offers a vast range of services designed to meet the needs of people coping with all kinds of issues. You could be going through a divorce or bringing up children on your own. Maybe your child’s teacher has told you they’ve noticed some disruptive behaviour. Perhaps you have child with a learning disability or maybe you’re living with a learning disability yourself. Or suspect a member of your family is being abused, physically or emotionally. Please see their website for a full list of current programmes and support services.
Norwood also runs three Children & Family Centres. Each centre runs specialist support groups for children and families, supported by teams of professional social workers.
Each year Norwood supports thousands of people.
