Richmond AID is a Teddington-based charity and we are celebrating 30 years this November. For more information or to get involved in birthday celebrations, email info@richmondaid.org.uk or call 020 8831 6411.
Set up by and for people with additional needs, Richmond AID has been providing support to the local disabled community since 1988. Whether you need housing/health/social care advice, help with benefits matters, support with getting back to work or just want an opportunity to meet new friends, there is likely to be a service at this friendly Teddington based charity that can help you or someone you know.
• Need help with keeping on top of your garden? Jean’s team of gardeners can help (closed in winter).
• Want to apply for a Personal Independence Payment or challenge a decision? Sandra K, Venna and Jo-Anne are the team to see.
• Curious about counselling? Speak to Suzie, our counselling lead (there is a sliding scale of services priced to meet all budgets).
• Do you have a teenager with disabilities who’d love to make friends with another local person with similar interests? Jamie and Junaina can help.
• For health, housing and social care advice, or help with connecting to other services in the borough, it’s Lorraine and Jo you need to see.
• If you have money and debt concerns and need help to understand your options and take action to resolve them, Sandra J and Suzie can help.
• Looking to get back into employment after a period of absence due to disability? Jamie is our resident expert.
