Community Media Crew Group: Learning Disabilities Day Service

We provide a safe environment for people with learning disabilities to improve their confidence and communication skills whilst socialising and making films, radio shows, drama productions and set design. We have made three feature films and dozens of community films. We recently made a feature film with 20 learning disabled cast working with professional actors who gave their time for free.

We are flexible in our approach and service. People make friends and improve their self-confidence. The venue is open three days a week Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays 10am to 2pm.
