We want to challenge ideas about disability by demonstrating skills that people with learning disabilities have. We need funding for vital community outreach so people of all abilities can be seen to be valued leaders, in dance, community & business.

Story

I recently had the honour of becoming a Trustee for DanceSyndrome and I’d love to raise some money for them instead of birthday presents this year. 

Here’s a bit more about DanceSyndrome…

The pioneering, innovative approach of DanceSyndrome is that if you include people of all abilities and empower them to take part in a way that means something to them, then they will start to believe in themselves and achieve things that they never thought possible. Dance is used to unlock potential but the skills that people learn can be transferred to other aspects of life beyond the arts. People with learning disabilities are being empowered to become visible, active members of society who are changing accepted beliefs about what people with learning disabilities are ABLE to do. People are empowered for life after taking part in DanceSyndrome sessions and there isn't any other provision like it in the North West. I have decided to raise funds to ensure that this life changing work is able to continue and appreciate your donations, which will all make a significant difference to the vital work of this small charity.
