Stronger Together.
A Network Built
on Shared Purpose.

LF is an international organisation that supports children and young people with disabilities in developing countries. The partnership with FFF dates to 2009 — one of our longest and most impactful alliances. LF provides annual grants for direct support to FFF's target children in a holistic way that leads to empowerment and creates enabling environments. LF also supports capacity strengthening of FFF staff to ensure quality service delivery. In August 2016, LF and MIVA Men donated a 15-seater bus to FFF to support improved service delivery.

Shine is the national charity for people living with Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Links with FFF were established in 2013 when co-founder Afolabi Fajemilo attended Shine's AGM. In 2015, Shine hosted three FFF staff on the Commonwealth Fellowship Programme — providing capacity building in NGO governance, health campaigns, support groups, and fundraising. A key outcome was the landmark SLIF Continence Management Project partnership, now reaching 9 hospitals across Nigeria and funded by UK DHSC.

After attending the 12th National Conference on Hydrocephalus in Maryland, USA, FFF became the first international community network of the Hydrocephalus Association (HA) in 2013. Since then, HA has been actively supporting FFF's support group activities — connecting Nigeria's Hydrocephalus community with the global network of researchers, clinicians, and families working to improve outcomes for people living with Hydrocephalus.
