Elifar Foundation

The Elifar Foundation is a small charity which aims to help improve the care, facilities and equipment available to profoundly disabled children and young adults both at home or in residential care.

Funding the purchase of a wide range of highly specialised equipment, which would otherwise be unavailable because of a lack of funds or because there is no statutory provision. The Elifar Foundation is run almost entirely by volunteers which means that a large proportion of the funds raised go directly to the people who need them.

In fact, anything that will make life happier and easier for the family in need. We accept applications for children from all over the UK from birth up to the age of eighteen.
