“Lapwing changed our lives. Our daughter hadn’t left the house in over a year. She wouldn’t let anyone in. We were stuck in an endless loop of fear, exhaustion, and isolation.

When Lapwing stepped in, everything began to shift. They came into our home three times a week, gently, consistently, and with an understanding that went deeper than any service we’d experienced before. They didn’t just bring education. They brought connection. Trust. Progress.

Slowly, our daughter began to feel safe again. She started to engage. To come out of her shell. And eventually, to leave the house. It wasn’t just about learning. It was about helping her re-enter the world in a way that respected her needs, honoured her pace, and celebrated her strengths.

Lapwing helped us turn survival into something hopeful. They gave us back our daughter. Thank you again for everything you've done - you’ll always be part of our daughter’s story.”

Testimonial from Lucy, parent of P who successfully transitioned from Lapwing in July 2025.

Activities Week saw over 100 Lapwing students taken safely out of their comfort zones, developing their social skills and confidence, making positive memories, learning new skills and having fun!
