The Rainbow Kite Story
Let's start at the beginning...
Rainbow Kite Project started as a collective vision when our co-founders were working together in special needs further education. We saw first hand how, once young people with complex needs reach 16+, services become complicated, variable, often invisible and can at times be low quality, which we all agreed needed to change!
We strongly believe that the focus of support and education should naturally shift to building young people's skills within the community which they are going to need to access when they become an adult, and often these skills will need to be repeated and supported long term to enable people with complex needs to truly develop their independence.
We began to put our vision into reality when Becca started Red Kite Advocacy, and built a client base who benefited hugely from the person-centred, relationship based specialist support she could offer. She was soon joined by Ellen , and we have since gone from strength to strength, and hope to broaden our client base and community of independence champions to enable more people with complex needs to benefit from our unique offer.
Mission
Our mission is to use our collective skillset and expertise to offer high quality support to children, young people and adults with a variety of needs. Our aim is to enable these individuals to interact successfully with their own communities in order to build on their independence, mental and physical wellbeing, lifelong opportunities to learn new skills and have a fulfilled life.
Our team consists of passionate independence champions who offer specialist services in their area of interest. As a community, we work together to share our strengths and skills, support each other, and continuously improve our practice to provide the best possible service to our clients.
Vision
At Rainbow Kite Project, we value each and every person we work with and believe that every individual deserves to have their voices heard. We advocate for the rights of our clients so that they can live their lives to the fullest. Our unique collection of skills and strengths enables us to offer a personalised approach to every client, ensuring that the support they receive is of the highest possible standard.
We are committed to creating a culture of inclusivity and acceptance in our community, and we strive to make a positive impact on the lives of those we serve. At Rainbow Kite Project, we believe that by working together, we can achieve great things and transform lives for the better.
