BOLD – Beds Opportunities for Learning Disabilities - Saturday Club & Thursday Club

Who are we?

We are a charity supporting Adults with Learning Disabilities

What do we do?

Social isolation can be a problem for people with learning disabilities and as we all know life is not just work, work, work, we all need some fun and laughter and the opportunity to spend time with their friends and meet new people and experience new and different activities. Our activities also benefit families by offering restbite be it only on a Saturday or a week if we go a holiday. We offer the following:

Saturday Club

Saturday Club is exactly what is says a social club that runs on a Saturday providing access to leisure facilities for people with learning disabilities.  Activities are varied and always good fun and past club days have included day trips to the seaside or theme parks, ten pin bowling, pub lunches, bingo, lazer, BBQ, day out to Harry Potter Studio, pantomime, Mercedes driving experience  and many more. All activities are fully staffed and 1:1 support is available on request.

A rota is produced every 2 months and is available by email or hard copy.

Thursday Club

A recent addition to the B.O.L.D diary is the social evening on a Thursday night where people go out for a meal together with their friends; again this a fully staffed activity with the venues chosen by the project members.
