Disability

Grapevine Essex

Grapevine Essex provides educational and recreational activities for adults with learning disabilities.

Their varied outings, activities, and trips during the Easter, Summer, and Christmas holidays run alongside weekly clubs which gives 130 members the opportunity to relax with friends, learn new skills, and enjoy different experiences in a safe environment. They enjoy activities such as bingo, arts and crafts, bowling, dance, as well as hearing from guest speakers.

Our grant supported their running costs, to allow them to develop their residential trips, which gives their members the opportunity to live independently for a short stay, providing them with the tools to lead an active and busy life, and feel more confident within the wider community.
