Activities

'It carries out activities or services itself'

'the provision of recreational facilities, or the organisation of recreational activities, with the object of improving the conditions of life for the persons for whom the facilities or activities are primarily intended'

The charity operates under the social model of disability, helping to identify barriers faced by individuals with neurological diagnoses, as well as their carers and families. We recognise the social, economic, and environmental influences on mental health and wellbeing and aim to take action to address these issues. Our projects focus on improving physical and mental health, wellbeing, quality of life, and resilience, emphasising recovery, re-enablement, and human rights protection. We support social and economic inclusion through a 'doing with' rather than 'doing for' approach, creating a safe environment to discuss the stigma and vulnerability surrounding mental health issues. By tailoring our services to the specific needs of our members, we provide support, advice, education sessions, therapies, creative activities, and healthy meals while promoting the positive benefits of green spaces.

Objectives: 1. To relieve the needs of people who are affected by Parhson's dsease or other neurological condtions withm North Lanarkshue and environs ('the Operating Area') and generally to promote the welfare of such persons and the carers of those affected by any of those conhtions. 2. To promote, establish, operate and/or support other schemes and projects of a charitable nature for the benefit of the residents of the Operating Area.
