Ø One-to-one support in the community

Our funds are raised through our support service, grants, donations, membership subscriptions and fundraising events. We have a team of 7 support workers providing one-to-one support for people to access community and leisure activities, education and work opportunities and to increase independence in their home. We intend to increase the number of support workers by two this year and support 2 more clients.

Dear all lovely Mencap service users
After asking lots of you where you would like to go this year for our annual trip , you all said Longleat .
So this year to keep costs down with the coach trip which was £720 for the day last year . We have decided to have a sponsored walk and a tea party in April to raise money for the trip so it doesn’t cost you too much .
We will be doing the sponsored walk around Eastrop again and a tea party with a disco and games at the Roger Morris Centre
Debbie is working on all the details and she will give you all the information when it’s organised .
Please let me know if this is something you would like to do . After all it’s all for you !!
