Projects
Our Lottery Project
We are thrilled to have four years of funding from The National Lottery Community Fund for our Healthy, Happy, Safe project.
Our Steering Group, made up of people with learning disabilities, helps to lead the project. They worked really hard to plan and run the Healthy, Happy, Safe Day on Wednesday 17 June 2026 at The Forum in Norwich.
The free event celebrated Learning Disability Week and brought people together from across Norfolk. Lots of brilliant organisations ran stalls, sharing information, advice and support. We loved the performances, thought the talks went really well, and were so pleased with everyone who ran craft tables throughout the day.
Most of all, we loved seeing so many people with learning disabilities coming together, meeting each other and having a good time. That is what we plan and run the day for.
Thank you to everyone who came along, and to our amazing Steering Group, volunteers, performers, speakers, stallholders and supporters who helped make the day such a success. We are already looking forward to Healthy, Happy, Safe 2027!
Get Volunteering
Thanks to a grant from the Get InVOLved Skills Innovation fund we ran a project last year looking at making volunteering easier for people with learning disabilities.
As part of our project we said we would make some free easy read templates. You can download and use them from here:
Volunteer Agreement
Volunteer Form
Volunteer Expenses
These can help organisations make information accessible for volunteers with learning disabilities.
You can listen to one of our members talking about the project here.

Get online, be safe online
Thanks to CityFibre we ran a Get online, be safe online project to teach people with learning disabilities to be safe online.
We did a survey to find out what tech people use and what people can do online.
Read our report about what we found out from the survey.
We made Easy Read SMART rules to help you be safe online.
People on the project learnt how to use Alexa the voice assistant.
Download the SMART rules and How to use Alexa Easy Read Guides.
We worked with the Stepping Stones Media Group to make videos for our project:
