Welcome to the Agape Family Care Trust

The Agape Family Care Trust is a Christian Trust which received charitable status in 1992.  The Trust is committed to building purpose-built units in east Sussex which encompass day care, respite and long-stay care facilities for young adults with profound disabilities.

The Trust came into being out of a growing concern for families with young members who have profound learning and physical disabilities, and for whom there is a desperate need for appropriate specialized respite, day or long-
term residential care. 

The Trust was originally centred round two young adults with multiple difficulties who have been cared for at home by their parents, all founder members and current directors of the Trust. Emma Chatfield and Amy Watson require
constant stimulation and 24-hour care from their parents to meet their special needs, but due to a lack of suitable local facilities, their future looks bleak.

There are many other young people in a similar position, whose carers need the assurance of a well-equipped, safe and loving environment for them, both for immediate respite and for their long-term future.

Standing Order Forms - anyone who would like to commit an amount on a regular basis can apply for the necessary banking instructions form from the Trust by telephoning (01323 840752).
