It is our aim to reduce some of the social isolation and exclusion experienced by young adults (aged 16–30) with additional support needs in East Lothian by providing a consistent, supportive weekly youth club and unique opportunities for supported independence, such as our annual activity weekend. As a parent-led organisation, our core objective is to champion inclusion and self-worth. We provide a safe environment where members can build genuine friendships and access the kind of enriching social experiences—like a holiday with mates—that other young people take for granted, but which are otherwise extremely expensive, often rely on unknown staff, and lack a natural peer group. We also provide two volunteering opportunities for people with support needs.
