From January, building on the success of our popular Social Skills, Healthy Eating and Arts and Crafts groups, we will be offering a full programme of activities Monday to Friday aimed at increasing independant living skills, improve fitness and foster creativity.

Our exciting new activities have been especially created with our customers wishes in mind. in our recent survey they said they would love more opportunities to "develop new skills", "make new friends" and "improve confidence and and independant skills". It was also great to hear how keeping active was important to the people who use our sevices and are really pleased to be able to put many of their ideas for sports and community activities into our new programme.
