Provision of specialist therapy services, including physio, occupational, speech and orthopaedic therapy and special education.
Kyaninga Child Development Centre was founded by Steve and Asha Williams in response to their own personal search for help and support for their son Sidney. Together with physiotherapist Fiona Beckerlegge, they created a center to provide much needed high quality specialised and affordable assessment, treatment, education and support to children with disabilities, their families and carers, to enable them to lead more fulfilling and independent lives.
‘Unlike other NGOs, KCDC is known for their impact by all at the grassroots level despite not looking big and having fancy buildings and cars.’ – Charles Remo Joseph, Speech Therapist
