Volunteer friends for disabled children and young people

Our very special service for disabled young people - volunteer friends. They just do what friends do together and sometimes there is a cost - a ticket for the cinema, the price of a coffee.

The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.
Visit the charity's profileImagine that you go to school miles from home, a special school that provides the education you need. Because of the distance involved, it can mean never seeing your schoolfriends outside school. It can mean not getting to know the local teenagers.
Imagine you go to a local school, but because you are "different", no-one wants to hang out with you. They call you names, or ignore you.
It can mean spending all your free time alone.
Friends for Leisure can help.
We have a large team of young volunteers and one of those could be your friend. They will go along with you to do the everyday things that all teenagers do - going to the cinema, or for a coffee, even the occasional pizza.
Friends for Leisure needs money to ensure that our young volunteers are not out of pocket. So we are seeking just £500 for volunteer expenses for a year.
