Our fun, friendly youth groups are for young people with any kind of disability or additional needs.
For example: autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, mental health difficulties, or physical disabilities
You must be aged 14 to 25 to come to the groups.
You must live or study in Brighton & Hove or East Sussex.
The groups are free to attend.
You do need to book for each session you want to attend though, as there are limited spaces.
We play lots of games and do fun activities together.
Some of the groups have specific themes, like boardgames, wellbeing walks, or running.
Our groups are super supportive and friendly – a space where you can really be yourself.
If you need one-to-one support, please bring your own support worker.
Check out our events calendar to see what groups and activities are coming up!
Learn more about where we meet, including photos and accessibility information.
We sometimes like to do things to help our community, like volunteering at local events or building food parcels.
We plan future groups and activities based on what you tell us you want to do.
You can get involved in other decisions too.
