10 years old and hoping for another 10

Mark arnold and I co-founded the Additional Needs Alliance 10 years ago and we just don't know where the time has gone!
It all started at a forum in Eastbourne, just before the Children's Ministry weekend - now know as the Hand in Hand conference.

When it started, both of us were doing additional needs ministry alongside other work/ministries. But now we are both concentrating on additional needs and disability ministry full time.

We've also has a change of logo!

We've come a long way since that weekend. We now have a wonderful core team and over 3,000 members in the Facebook group (Where most of what we do happens).

We have had the prayers of many as we began the Additional Needs Alliance and travelled the journey with many members of the Facebook group and our colleagues. We hope you will continue or join us on the journey and pray us through the next ten years.


There's still much to be done!
