About SCAMPPS
SCAMPPS in Surrey is a registered charity (No. 1112112) that supports young children who have moderate to severe complex special needs living in Surrey.
It has been set up by a group of parents who themselves have young special-needs children.
Our common bond is that we all attended 'JOG' – The Junior Opportunity Group run by the East Elmbridge and
Mid Surrey NHS Trust which offers a range of therapies to children with a difference.

The children who are invited to attend JOG range in age from 0 to 3 years and have a range of disabilities. Some of the children have common genetic conditions like Down syndrome; others have more rare conditions like Prader Willi and Fragile X. Some of the children have a diagnosis of cerebral palsy, some face terminal conditions, whilst others remain undiagnosed.
In 2004 a group of parents decided to band together to help raise additional funds for the group, and so SCAMPPS was formed... Striving for Children's Additional Medical, Physical and Personal Support. We are pleased to announce the support of Consultant Paediatricians Dr. Paula Sneath and Dr. Maria Garcia, as well as Senior Occupational Therapist Anna Roberts, Senior Speech and Language Therapist Claire Finlay and Senior Physiotherapist Sharon Gosling from the EEMS NHS Trust, who have all taken on the role of special advisors to the charity.
