Th¢ Trust¢¢s consider that through this work the charity is creating substantial public benefit through the oppo]Tunities li provides for leaming-disabled people and their support n¢iworks. Overview of our Work At Purple Patch. we believe that being engaged with the world is key to leading a full. happy and well life. But many leaming-disabled people don't have 58f¢, supportive environments, where ihey att free to be themselves and leam in a way that suits them. They're overlooked and underr¢pr¢sent¢d. Th¢ many baryiers thai stop ihem from being able to access learning opportunilies means that they'r¢ denied the benefits that come from them. And their voice5 are simply not hrd. W¢'re h¢re to change that. We're at Ihe forefroni of building a fairer, more equal society. We're empowering learning-disabled people by improving their mental wellbeing, social conneclions, confiden¢e. independence and life skills, and w¢'re making sure that their wants and nttds are listened io and acted upx)n.

It supports people to explore ideas, themes and tOPlCs in ways which are ac¢essibl¢. imaginative and joyfull W¢ work with people of all ages and support needs- our approach allows ev¢ryone lo access our work in iheir own way and empowers people to learn in th¢ way that best 5Ults them. and to become powerfvl advocates for themselves and their ¢ommunity. We're ambitious in th¢ subjects w¢ ¢ov¢r: we don't see any Yeason that a person wilh even the most complex needs can't engage with Shakespeare, maths or any other subje¢i 8nd we see it as our job to bring them to life creatively! In all our work, we enable our participants io b¢ positively chall¢nged and inspired by learning about, and engaging with. themselves and the world around them.

Evidently. this year has be¢n a challenging one from a financial p¢pectIVe. An increasingly competitive funding landscap¢, combined with risin8 costs, h&s led to us 105ing money for the first time in 10 years. Thankfully, we've b¢en able to absorb the financial 105s, and have made significant adaptations in order to secure our future. including strearnlining i)ur processes io increase etTici¢n¢y, making the difficult decision to close our Doncasler Programme. and making redundanci¢s wiihin our office t¢am.
