Our Members are integral to everything we do, and we work hard to ensure that every member is valued, supported and encouraged.

Our members are amazing and we shout about their achievements whenever we can.

We share success stories and those 'wow' moments, big and small, to show families just how incredible our children are.

Reach supports over 600 children directly through family membership of the charity and helps new parents and children by providing freely available information and advice.

A vital source of support is provided by 19 volunteer-led local branches who organise events and meet-ups for families.

The charity also organises annual activity weekends, an annual family weekend in October, loan of musical instruments and a bursary scheme for adaptions to overcome the barriers of upper limb difference.
