Under The Stars runs learning disability friendly nightclubs and music workshops in South Yorkshire.

Under The Stars is a social enterprise run by people with a learning disability and their friends. We run proper nights out and people come to the clubs so they can have a good time in a safe environment, meet up with old friends & make new ones. We also run music workshops where people with learning disabilities can learn rock band instruments, write lyrics and songs, DJ & perform in a band. Our activities increase confidence, reduce social exclusion and build bridges with the local community.

Why the community needs us

We empower and enable people with learning disabilities, developing their individual skills, confidence, independence and improving their health and wellbeing. We build bridges between people with learning disabilities and the rest of the community, to the benefit of all. We work together with local government, schools, community groups and businesses, and buy locally wherever possible.

Our impact on the community

We measure our impact against the following three outcomes: 1) We will create a strong and sustainable community to support people with learning disabilities in South Yorkshire, raise awareness and model good practice; 2) We will support people with learning disabilities to socialise, have fun, meet up with old friends and make new ones; 3) We will help people with learning disabilities to develop their individual skills, confidence, independence, a voice and the ability to express themselves.

Volunteers needed

We are always looking for volunteers to help out at our nightclubs, music workshops, in the office or on our Board of Directors. Contact us to find out more, and we can send you an application pack.
