Objectives

LinkAble offers a wide range of fun stimulating social activities to children, teenagers and adults with learning disabilities.  As well as making a real difference to the lives of all those we support, the activities we offer provide respite for their parents/carers

LinkAble supports children, young people and adults with learning disabilities in Woking and the surrounding areas.  We are passionate about supporting people with learning disabilities or autism to live joyful and purpose-driven lives.   Our key services are Play sessions for children, Next Steps skills development and socialisation for young people and No Limits social activities for adults.    Sessions are based at The Link in central Woking but we like to get out and about locally to farms, bowling, tourist attraction, cinema, restaurants etc.    The people we support benefit from making friends, developing skills for independence, have a routine to their week and have fun!  It prevents them feeling isolated and alone.   Familes get a break from the demands of caring, time to themselves or time to spend with their other children.
