PACSO
Parents and Carers Support Organisation (PACSO) provide play and social opportunities for children and Young People with disabilities & their siblings, and respite for parents and carers in the Chichester and Arun districts of West Sussex.
At PACSO, we welcome children and young people of all ages (0-25) and disabilities – physical, learning and behavioural. We will never turn away a child, no matter how complex their needs.
We know that parents and carers are the experts on their disabled child, and we work with them to help their child reach their full potential. No one organisation can meet a family’s entire needs and that is why we work closely with statutory bodies and other voluntary organisations to bring about the best outcomes for the individual child in a time of great societal flux and financial challenge.
