Story
Independent Lives is a user-led charity working to change the lives of disabled people, people with support needs and carers. Our vision is for a fair society where everyone can participate and has the opportunity to fulfil their potential.
Creating a community environment.
We have created a safe and accessible space for disabled people to meet, learn and share their experiences. We want to empower disabled people to build connections, develop skills and support each other to live independent lives.
By making a donation or supporting us to raise funds, you will help us to fund the activities that support disabled people, preventing social isolation. This may include coffee mornings, creative classes, digital skills training, health and social care training and opportunities for volunteers.
I feel very lonely. I wish there was somewhere I could go to make new friends who really understand what it's like. - Independent Lives client
Please support us to continue raising funds towards a community space which is accessible, visible, inclusive and open to all.
