This week, our Holiday Scheme enjoyed a special da This week, our Holiday Scheme enjoyed a special day on the water with our friends from @canalability

Our group of young people spotted wildlife, had a go at steering the adapted boat, enjoyed impromptu singalongs, and saw a nature reserve during the day.

This trip was part of our sessions for young people with a disability aged 15-19 years during school holidays. Next week, we will be visiting @lambourneendcentre

If you are interested in our Holiday Scheme for the Summer Holidays, drop us a message. We would love to hear from you!

Dining Out Adventures at Accuro! 🍽️✨ Restaurant o Dining Out Adventures at Accuro! 🍽️✨

Restaurant outings are so much more than just delicious food—they're powerful stepping stones toward independence for young people with a disability and a great social get-together for adults.

These outings create a safe space where our members can build confidence, develop life skills, and form meaningful friendships. And it doesn’t stop at restaurant outings; we enjoy takeaways and shopping for lunch too!

These experiences aren't just fun—they're essential preparation for adulthood, fostering independence in a supportive environment where everyone belongs. For adults with a disability, eating out is a key social occasion when they catch up with friends and make new ones.

Want to join in? Message us to find out more 😀
