Follow Your Dreams: Life Wise
Young People
Funds will help us develop a training programme of weekly workshops for up to twelve young people with learning disabilities.
About this cause
Follow Your Dreams is a local charity that inspires children and young people with learning disabilities to follow their dreams. We believe that every young person has the right to maximise their potential. Far too often, albeit with the best intentions, children with learning disabilities are instilled with the belief that they are limited in what they can achieve. This leaves them demotivated, afraid to try new things, trapped in their comfort zone. We work with schools, clubs and societies, and families who have children with learning disabilities.
How this cause brings people in the community together
We have involved the community in the design of the programme and individuals will be delivering specialist workshops using their skills and experience. families will benefit from increased social interaction and community involvement.
