A brief history of KASBAH
KASBAH was founded by a group of parents of children with Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus in 1966. The charity grew quickly as did the services that were on offer. KASBAH gained a reputation for taking the time to give a personal touch to all members by staying in regular contact, offering an individualised service, and the flexibility to fit into the needs of our members lives. Today we continue to grow and offer valuable services to any disabled person within the County of Kent.
