“The help I received from Sibs has made a huge difference to me not just in practical ways but also in terms of emotional support. Sibs and their staff are the only people I have ever spoken to who have any understanding of the long-term issues affecting siblings and who can acknowledge that siblings have needs that often have to go unmet because of more pressing family priorities.” Adult sibling

Sibs helped me a lot.  I remember writing to a Sibs Advisor. They wrote back to me and they were really kind. They offered me some good suggestions and then and my Mum and Dad spent some more time looking at stuff on the Sibs website. The adults who run Sibs are supportive and motivate you too and they know what you are going through.  With Sibs I feel like I have people who are there for me.”  Young sibling

“I cannot thank Sibs enough! It’s not often you can say that the support someone gave you was life changing, but it really was, we have been able to give our son the best start in life and one he richly deserves. Thank you so so much!” Parent of a young sibling
