- £13,854 to allow the Linkage Community Trust to offer activities for young people (aged 13 – 16) with learning disabilities and/or autism to help improve their well-being and social skills.
Gill Hutchinson from Linkage said:
“Linkage helps people with learning disabilities make the most of opportunities that others sometimes take for granted. The GDF program will help fund our Outreach service, where we are piloting informal support for young people.
“Our many different services all have a common aim – to provide more opportunity and choice so the disabled or autistic people we support can achieve their aspirations in life and be as independent as possible.”
