The FASD Trust was started in January 2007 in response to the growing number of requests for information on FASD being received by the adoptive parents of a child with FAS. The FASD Trust exists as a charity to raise awareness of FASD thereby * improving the understanding of those with FASD and *increasing the support that those with FASD and their families / carers receive, not just from statutory bodies, but from the wider community. *preventing others being born with FASD. It aims to do this by: * running support groups * having a telephone helpline * holding training seminars * providing advice on "best practice" to teachers, medics and other professionals involved in the care of those with FASD. * informing local and national decision makers to ensure provision for those with FASD.* collaborating with others.
