We support adults with learning disabilities along with their families and carers, and parent carers of children with any type of disability and/or additional need from birth to 25.

We provide a range of leisure activities for adults with a learning disability to help them live the lives they want to lead and support them to contribute to their local community.  We also provide emotional and practical support, advice, and information, to families and carers.

Why the community needs us
We have been providing vital services for almost 70 years, run and managed by a voluntary board of trustees. Services include Chill and Chat, a place where parents of pre-school children with additional needs support one another, a range of day, evening and weekend activity and social clubs that give adults with learning disabilities opportunities to make and keep friends, gain skills and reduce social isolation. Carer support groups provide advice and companionship.

Our impact on the community
Croydon Mencap provides safe, inviting places for adults with learning disabilities to learn and have fun. With our support individuals face challenges, are happier and healthier, are engaged in meaningful activities, have an improved quality of life and get involved in their local communities. Without local support such as this people with learning disabilities are far more likely to live impoverished lives, be socially isolated and have poor health. 
We also provide essential support to carers and families of children with any type of disability and adults with a learning disability.
