Make Caudwell Children the next destination on your career journey and help shape the future for disabled children.
OUR VISION
A world where all disabled children and their families have choice, opportunity, dignity and understanding.
OUR MISSION
Practical and emotional support through compassionate and efficient services.
OUR MOTTO
Whatever It Takes.
We regularly look to recruit dedicated professionals who are as passionate as we are about changing the lives of disabled children in the UK.
It is an exciting period for us. We’re growing as a charity and we’re doing more than ever before to improve the lives of disabled children and their families across the UK. May 2019 marked the opening of the Caudwell International Children’s Centre, the UK’s first independent purpose-built facility dedicated to autism and neurodevelopmental disorders.
Caudwell Children is committed to creating a diverse environment and will not discriminate for any reason against any person because of their age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion and belief, sex or sexual orientation. We particularly encourage applications from people who identify as Black, Asian or from a Minority Ethnic background and other underrepresented groups.
Staff Testimonials
I'd recommend working at Caudwell Children to any graduate! Not only do you get to work for a fantastic cause and make a difference every day, but you also get the opportunity to work with a very dedicated, supportive and friendly team. A great start to any career.
Family Testimonials
The assessment itself was really impressive, but what really stood out to me was the quality of the feedback report. It made really helpful recommendations and for the first time we feel listened to. We were totally blown away by Caudwell Children’s impressive service.
Before I came I was so nervous, I had butterflies. But when I got to the desk it was OK. They were really, really nice to me and when I got here it just felt comfortable. It’s a really nice place – I’d like to live here!
