We are a charity working with adults with learning disabilities and autism. We are about to move out of our traditional day centre into the community based at our new hub at Blists Hill Museum.

Then we hope to be out exploring, volunteering and taking part in different activities across the ten museum sites as well as other local places!
Would you be able to become part of our volunteer driver team, to help us get about? It would be an amazing service you’d be offering, allowing the adults we support to explore this beautiful area in a new and exciting way!
Please get in touch for more details, it would be great to have you as part of our team!
