This year Ilkley Live Garden Music Festival has chosen Outside the Box as their charity of choice.

Outside the Box is run by registered charity Ilkley Community Enterprise Ltd and based in Ilkley. In 2013 we launched our community café - this is a café with a difference: a social enterprise run by and with our local community, it provides training, work experience, learning and development opportunities for people with learning disabilities and other support needs (our members). Our strong local focus and links mean that OTB members are very much part of the local community.

Since our launch, Outside the Box has gone from strength to strength: winning awards; featuring in the national media; expanding our services; and most crucially, through our innovative, 'can do approach' helping more members (We currently support over 70 each week) to achieve their goals and discover and showcase their talents.

We rely on the generosity and support of our community to be able to continue the work we do and offer equal and ample opportunities to our members who are full of potential and deserve to live, work and enjoy their lives as well and successfully as possible.
