Who we are

Who we are

HemiHelp's Board of Trustees is made up of parents who have children with hemiplegia, adults with hemiplegia and professionals who provide strategic input and governance for the organisation. The charity has a small team of staff who coordinate all our activities, supported by a large network of volunteer parents and adult members. Together we work to provide information and support services, raise public and professional awareness of hemiplegia, promote rights and wellbeing of people affected by hemiplegia and to raise money to do all this.
