Transforming Lives Through Jesus with Disabled People

Through the Roof is a Christian disability charity that:

✔ Changes the lives of disabled people around the world
✔ Helps others to change lives too.

We want to see everyone valued equally, fully belong, and able to contribute their gifts and skills. We work together with churches and people across all disabilities to advance the Christian faith globally. We seek to achieve 3 strategic outcomes through using our ABC framework that enables:

Access

For everyone to know Jesus, with disabled people fully welcomed into Christian life. 

Belonging

For everyone to grow together as the family of God, with disabled people flourishing in community with others.

Commission

For everyone to reflect the character of Jesus, with disabled people making disciples, to the glory of God.

Together we can make a difference…

Through the Roof has a vital mission, to support church and society on this journey from Access to Belonging to Commission (Matthew 28:19) and to equip disabled people so they can fully participate in the kingdom of God and use their gifts for God’s glory.  We would love to serve you and/or have your involvement in the work, so please check out the website, visit our Facebook page or get in touch with us.
