500 Mile Bike Ride Through May

Little Gate Farm is a registered charity in East Sussex. We support people with Learning Disabilities & Autism into paid employment. We train and support 100 people each week. We support people with a range of disabilities including Autism, Asperger’s, Downs Syndrome & chromosomal disorders.

Story

We, Tony, Kev, and Jason, have committed to cycling 500 miles throughout May. Our initiative, dubbed 'Miles for Smiles,' aims to bring joy to the trainees of Little Gate Farm by providing them with sporting equipment, including a pool table and a table tennis table. The positive feedback from the trainees underscores the importance of this equipment, and we're reaching out to seek your support in achieving our goal.

The provision of equipment such as a pool table and a table tennis table serves a crucial purpose in enhancing the trainees' physical and mental well-being. Engaging in sports activities not only promotes physical fitness but also fosters social interaction, teamwork, and confidence-building among individuals with learning disabilities.

Statistics reveal that only 6% of adults with learning disabilities are employed in paid positions, leaving 94% in unpaid work, daycare, or confined to their homes. This disparity is something Little Gate Farm aims to address.

At Little Gate Farm, they firmly believe in the right of every individual to pursue and excel in paid employment. By supporting our initiative, you're contributing to this noble cause and helping to transform lives.
