Our Work
The Stay Up Late Campaign
PEOPLE WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES FIGHTING FOR THE RIGHT TO PARTY
This is where our charity started and we’re developing more ways for more people with learning disabilities to fight for their right to party!
Gig Buddies & Sports Buddies
Gig Buddies and Sports Buddies are our projects that pair up people with and without learning disabilities in Sussex to be friends and to go to events together.
Training & Consultancy
Our training sessions are always delivered in our style of presenting serious issues with large dollops of fun and involvement.
We can design sessions according to what you need around participation, campaigning, volunteer recruitment and culture change.
Set up your own Gig Buddies
This is the way that we share our Gig Buddies project with other organisations who want to replicate our work.
We want as many people with learning disabilities and/or autism to have social lives as possible and so working with partner organisations who share our passion and philosophy is the best way for us to do this.
