About the LIFE Programme

The LIFE Programme is designed for young adults aged 16–25 with learning disabilities and additional support needs.

At LIFE, we believe everyone should have the opportunity to learn, build confidence, develop independence, make friends and express themselves. We support people with a wide range of strengths, abilities and support needs to take part in meaningful activities, develop life skills and achieve goals that matter to them.

The programme focuses on four key areas:

  • Learning
  • Independence
  • Friendship
  • Expression

Through practical activities, social opportunities and personalised support, participants are encouraged to explore their interests, try new experiences and develop skills at a pace that works for them.

We create a safe, welcoming and supportive environment where everyone is valued as an individual, encouraged to participate and supported to reach their potential.

Activities within the programme may include:

  • Cooking and baking
  • Café and customer service activities
  • Arts, crafts and creative projects
  • Health and wellbeing activities
  • Community-based experiences and outings
  • Social and recreational activities

No two days are the same, but every activity is designed to help participants grow in confidence, build friendships, develop independence and enjoy a sense of belonging within their community.

If you’re passionate about supporting young adults with additional support needs to build confidence, develop independence and achieve their goals, we’d love to hear from you.
