About us

Unique Kidz & Co, founded in 2009 by two mums, is an OFSTED registered childcare service for disabled children, young adults and their families. Unable to find suitable childcare for their own disabled children, Jane & Denise created the charity which originally provided afterschool and holiday clubs for children aged 5-18. The charity has now extended it's services to include '4Ever Unique', which provides daytime support for young adults aged 16-25 and runs from its own building in Morecambe. It is our mission to provide children with disabilities with the same opportunities as other children in a fun, friendly and stimulating environment. Unique Kidz also has a 'Stay and Play Group' for disabled children up to the age of 5 and their families. It also runs a 'Siblings Group' which meets twice a month to support the needs of young people aged 8-18 who have a sibling with disabilities. The quality of our services has been recognised nationally by winning various awards, Children in Need funding and an Outstanding rating by OFSTED in 2010, 2014 and 2016. We rely heavily on the support of local businesses and the local community.

    Passionate about giving you peace of mind by sorting your Will, Trust and Power of Attorney, and doing good at the same time! Our multi award winning team show how its done with care and compassion!

    Anyone for pizza? 🍕 This week Georgia, one of our administrators, and I visited Unique Kidz and Co. Chris Pilkington invited us to see first hand how our donations help. Each month the families they support have the opportunity to let theur imagination run riot at the wonderful Role and Play session. 5% from every Will and Power of Attorney invoice is donated to local charities like this. The £2000 UniqueKidz received from us last year helped fund these amazing events. It was such a fantastic morning - shame I couldn’t quite fit into the spaceman suit though 🤣 #charity #community #givingback #morecambe

    What an incredible day yesterday at Unique Kidz and Co. We had the absolute pleasure of handing over toys to some truly special children and making the day even brighter, I got to dress up as our beloved Strongdor Limited mascot, Theodor! 🧸✨ Seeing their faces light up with excitement and joy reminded me why giving back to the community is so important. It’s not just about the gifts it’s about the laughter, the smiles and the memories we create together. ❤️ A huge thank you to the amazing team at Unique Kidz and Co for the warm welcome and for everything you do to support and uplift these incredible young stars. 🌟 Let’s keep spreading joy and kindness because every child deserves to feel special. 🎉 Big thanks to Georgina Fisher & Linus Cane for capturing the behind the scenes videos/images and thanks to Hannah Crabtree and Dina Vardavas for helping me get into Theodor! #CommunityMatters #GivingBack #ToyDrive #UniqueKidz #Strongdor #TheodorTheMascot #SpreadingJoy #Networking #Gratitude #Teamwork

  • Unique Kidz support young people with disabilities. We support their families too. From sharing experiences with schools, healthcare plans, benefits and other advice, our staff are on hand to support parents, carers and siblings of children and young adults with disabilities. Our Stay & Play service for under-5s is often the start of a parents network. Meeting other parents and chatting through experiences with their own children, from here parents can access our toy library, coffee & cake meetings and other resources as their young person navigates through our services. We also, on occasion, work with businesses to provide information evenings that are of benefit to the parents and carers. We aim to be at the centre of their network of support.

Every one of the 187 young people that are currently on our registers, have their own likes, dislikes, specific needs and stories. We plan our activities to be inclusive for everyone and always celebrate what makes us Unique. We are aiming to make a bigger impact on the lives of more unique young people with our development plans - https://lnkd.in/ewir34RX We hope you continue to support us as we head towards this next exciting chapter in our story.
