We provide a community centre for disabled children and their families in Wokingham Borough and surrounding areas. We are a charity which provides activities, support, therapies, training and clubs for disabled children of all ages and all types of disability.

Story

Building for the Future is moving to a new 'Our House' on Thames Valley Park that will allow us to expand our free services to more of the area’s disabled community. Having a much larger, safe and purpose-built facility will increase confidence and the mental wellbeing of disabled children and young people.

‘Our House’ is a place where disabled people can play, learn and develop life skills. It's also a place where families and carers can access free support and services. Many consider us as a ‘lifeline’. We offer a welcoming, safe haven for the area’s children and young people with disabilities but we’re running out of room.
