At DMK Care & Support, we support young people with acquired/traumatic brain injury, physical disabilities and complex health needs.
One of the biggest challenges we face, and regularly hear from families and young people, is how difficult it is to find social and leisure opportunities that are age-appropriate, inclusive and feel “normal”.
As a care provider, our role is to ensure care needs, safety and wellbeing are met, but we also recognise that social connection, enjoyment and belonging are needs too, not luxuries.
As a company, we often struggle to source activities that go beyond conferences, services or specialist provision, and instead offer real-life experiences such as:
🎶 live music & gigs
🎤 social events
🎨 creative and fun activities
🌍 being part of the community alongside peers
Having identified this gap, we want to do more than acknowledge it — we want to help change accessibility.
Across Hampshire, Dorset & Sussex, we’d really value your thoughts:
• Is this something our young people need more of?
• Do you feel there’s a gap in what’s currently available?
• Would you be interested in helping to shape, support or create something like this?
This is very much at the listening and ideas stage, and we want to build something with people, not for them.
