Please feel free to look at our amazing blogs to find out what sort of things we do such as hate crime awareness and what we discuss in our self advocacy group. We also have been working alongside other self advocacy groups and organisations like the NHS. Our drama group called Pyjama Drama are made up with people with learning disabilities and Autism who are working on creating a performance based on their real life experiences.
If you have an idea in mind for a project, please feel free to get in contact with us to elaborate on your idea or wanting to get involved with our self advocate groups and help others to have a voice please get in touch with us.
