About the Organisation

The Challenging Behaviour Foundation was set up in 1997 by Vivien Cooper OBE, the parent of a child with severe learning disabilities who displayed a range of challenging behaviours. At the time, there was no support for families like Viv’s and no adequate provision to support her son - other than almost three hundred miles away

Crucially, families remain at the heart of our work. It is their experiences that shape everything we do; from the direct support we provide through our family advice service, to the training we deliver for commissioners and providers, through to the rich evidence base we bring from working with families to challenge the system and to “speak truth to power”.

This role requires a Basic Disclosure Check.
