"I can let go at Uppertunity, I can really be me"

Who are we: at a glance

We are a registered Community Interest Company (a type of non-profit social enterprise), working with individuals (16+) with learning disabilities, autism and mental health barriers. We focus on an individual’s strengths and aspirations, then work with them to realise their potential, leading to self-worth and independence. We do this through: creative workshops, group and community work, mentoring, skill development programs, meaningful volunteering roles and social events.

Our mission is to create social change by demonstrating that everyone has strengths. Some people may need more support and attention to get there, but we all have a calling and a purpose we can serve that provides self-fulfillment.
