The work we do

We offer support via volunteer pairings, facilitations to groups and clubs, organises social events and regular outings.

Our work provides opportunities for individual to:

Increase self confidence
Develop independence
Engage more fully with their local communities
Improve physical fitness
Improve emotional health and wellbeing
... Live the lives they want to live

How we do this will be dependent on where a person lives. Our job is to ask the right questions in order to find out what a person’s leisure and learning needs are, with the view to developing services which meet that need.

We currently provide services which include:

Personal Assistants
Fitness clubs
Special interest groups
Swimming groups
Pub lunches
Volunteers

... however, we are open to new ways of supporting individuals to achieve what they want, to meet their needs.

We actively:

Listen – to what a person wants
Learn – work with the person in order to further our own understanding
Respond – develop services, in co-production with individuals, that they expressly need
