If you live in Sussex and have a learning disability or are an autistic person who wants to go out and get more active then you’ve come to the right place.
We will aim to match you up with a volunteer buddy who enjoys the same things as you.
Sadly we can’t promise to find you someone but we will do our best.
It does depend on whether there is a volunteer who lives near you.
!Unfortunately, due to changes in funding and high demand we are currently unable to accept applications from East and West Sussex! We are still open to applications from Brighton & Hove and for volunteer applications (in fact, we need more volunteers so we can open the list again).
