Campaign by Story
The Lyn's House community
Lyn’s House is an unusual space where people with and people without learning disabilities can experience and help build community that’s centred on mutual welcome and friendship rather than care provision
The impact of Lyn's House
People who belong to Lyn’s House, and people who know us, often say how important it is that communities like Lyn’s House exist, and talk about the transforming potential of bringing people together like this - for everyone involved.
I've been touched by the beauty of Lyn’s House in a way that makes me yearn for all of reality to participate in it.
I can be myself here
The project
We think the transformative potential of Lyn's House is worth exploring and sharing.
‘Growing in Friendship’ will do this by
• explore in detail how people experience Lyn’s House
• look at the core practices which make Lyn’s House what it is
• share what we learn with others
• develop practical resources based on the Lyn's House model for use in other settings
Members of the community are actively involved in the project: helping run it as well as taking part in it.
