Friendship and leisure for children and young people with a disability.
Leisure activities and friendships are key parts of growing up. Often children and young people with disabilities find problems in reaching these natural objectives.
Friends for Leisure (FFL) help by finding a volunteer friend or by enabling your children and young people to participate in the activities of their choice.
Teaching children and the general public about understanding disabilities helps us reach our aims. FFL helps by providing disability awareness sessions for schools and organisations.
The whole ethos of FFL is about inclusive individual and group activities, which we offer to your children and young people. Our activities may also result in some respite for parents, carers and siblings.
Volunteers gain valuable experience, which equips them with skills that they will be able to use later in life, particularly in the social, caring or health sectors.
Think Ability not Disability!
