What happens when you mix creativity, purpose, and people...Uppertunity!

 Take part in more than 20 fun and friendly workshops every week! Our creative programme includes art, drama, music, sewing, gardening, movement, cooking, life skills and much more.

These groups help you build confidence, learn new skills, express yourself and be part of a supportive community.

  Take part in social activities, including group outings, themed events, our inclusive Bowling Stones League and our daily lunch club (Tues–Fri, 12–1pm at Uppertunity). We also work with community partners and guest facilitators to bring new experiences and activities to our members.

 Build confidence, develop skills and gain experience through learning and volunteering. UppLift includes volunteer opportunities, student placements, and staff development, alongside programmes that help people build healthy relationships and communication skills.

We also provide support for carers 

 Celebrate what makes each person unique and help us challenge stereotypes through creativity. Our community shape and create exhibitions and collaborative creative projects that share important messages about diversity, community and inclusion. We also create merchandise that helps spread these messages. 

  Explore nature, try new outdoor experiences and discover ways to care for our planet. Activities include gardening, nature walks, creative outdoor projects, environmental learning and exploring our History and Nature Trail at Dudhope Castle. Green Explorers helps people connect with nature and learn how we can look after our planet. 

Come along to meet people, enjoy games and activities, and have some tasty treats. Each session will also include fun, accessible learning about friendships, relationships, communication, boundaries and staying safe, both in person and online.
