Our Day Services
Our Day Activity Centres provide meaningful opportunities for autistic people to learn, socialise, and take part in activities that reflect their interests and goals. These services are separate from our living services, offering a dedicated space for learning, creativity, and community involvement.
Educational and Vocational Opportunities
Our Day Activity Centres offer structured opportunities for people to develop practical and everyday skills in a supportive environment. This might include activities such as cooking, domestic tasks, arts and crafts, gardening, or community projects. These opportunities are designed to be meaningful, accessible, and tailored to individual needs, helping people to build confidence, communication, and independence. We are also able to offer ASDAN-accredited programmes, providing recognition for achievements and skills development.
​
Leisure and Therapeutic Opportunities
We also provide a wide range of leisure and therapeutic activities that support wellbeing and enjoyment. These can include music, massage, sensory sessions, time with animals, creative arts, physical activity, and community outings. Each activity is designed around the person, ensuring that they are engaging, fun, and supportive of individual goals.
