Befriending
We offer a sitting and befriending service to Nottingham City and County for clients with a range of learning disabilities. We support both adults and children over the age of 5 years old. This is available either in the client’s home or out and about in the community. This could include, for example, trips to the cinema, walks in a park, swimming, trips to the shops etc. Our aim is to give the people we support the opportunity to access activities and social experiences to build their life skills, self-confidence and self-esteem. We help to develop basic life skills in the home and community, including independent travel training and making healthy lifestyle choices. This service also gives the parents, carers and their families some respite time and an additional source of support.
Lifestyle Choices
We run two day services for adults with learning disabilities and autism. These are open Monday to Friday and support adults in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.
Each day in the week is an opportunity to learn, make friends, express yourself, and get active here at Nottingham Mencap. We are proud of what we do here and have trained learning disability tutors delivering sessions which are varied, educational, and fun. We can provide 1-1 support if needed, and we aim to help the people we support reach their potential.
Activities include independent life skills such as cooking and using the internet safely, arts and crafts, drama, music, and sports.
