SEQUAL: Special Equipment and Aids for Living.
We are The Sequal Trust, a national fundraising Charity founded in 1969 which is committed to bridging the communication gap for disabled people. By providing suitable assistive technology to people who need it most, we aim to increase the quality of life for those who are non-verbal, have incoherent speech, or who have learning and communication difficulties.
Helping people see the person – not the disability, and to provide the means to set lively minds free, continue to be our prime objectives. We aim to achieve this by making sure each of our disabled members reach their full potential through the provision of suitable communication equipment such as speech aids, light writers and grid pads.
To see the kind of the conditions we can help and the provisions we can provide please visit our current appeals page. Anybody can become a member and register for our help, or if you believe in the same things we do, you can also donate at any given time online, by text, cheque or in your will.

Local Offer
The Sequal Trust is a registered charity covering the whole of the UK. Our main objective is to provide relief to children and adults who are severely disabled and depend on electronic communication aids and adaptations to alleviate their problems.
When we hear of someone whose quality of life can be improved by the provision of an adapted computer or communication aid, we start a fund-raising campaign for that person to provide the equipment recommended by their assessor. The initial approach can be from the person themselves, their family, school, or speech and language/occupational therapist.
