WHO WE ARE University Jewish Chaplaincy supports Jewish Students in 12 regions at dozens of universities across the UK. Our chaplains and chaplaincy couples are there for Jewish students of all backgrounds and affiliations. They provide a warm, vibrant, inclusive and inspiring Jewish environment with thousands of students benefiting every year from their pastoral, spiritual and practical support. Our goal is to give Jewish students – wherever they may be – access to a UJC chaplain. Chaplains work to inspire students to own their Judaism and to empower them to make it a meaningful part of their lives as they move into adulthood. They are also on hand to offer support during challenging times as students adapt to life away from home for the first time.

Cerebral Palsy affects 130,000 adults in the UK. It presents in childhood, and at that stage, is rightly given coordinated care. Then at 18, you are no longer under paediatric services, and the support structure disappears. Cerebral Palsy is a lifelong condition, yet the way healthcare is provided to adults with CP is as if the condition has miraculously disappeared. UP-The Adult Cerebral Palsy movement is changing the way people think about Cerebral Palsy as a lifelong conditon. It is about positively making the changes in ourselves, and in society, so that we can live our best lives.
