Bridging Projects are 'youth clubs' specifically aimed at disabled young people aged 13-19; for those who may find it difficult, because of their special needs, to attend regular youth provision within their community.
The aims of the projects are to enable young people with a disability to access positive activities, make new friends, socialise, learn new skills and get advice.
Members have a range of impairments including those on the Autistic Spectrum, Aspergers, dyspraxia, emotional and behavioural difficulties, other learning difficulties and some physical disabilities.
Bridging Projects aim to reduce or 'bridge' (hence the name!) the gap between disabled young people and their non-disabled peers, and to integrate disabled young people within the community they live in.
With the support of a 'Peer Mentor' disabled young people are included, involved, interested and inspired at Bridging Projects.
