Lifelong learning and leisure opportunities for people with a learning disability

Opportunities for adults with additional learning needs
ValePlus is a charity based in the Vale of Glamorgan providing a day service for adults with additional learning needs. The charity operates from four locations, three in Barry and one in Llantwit Major. The service we provide is to deliver an active timetable of learning with a wide range of topics to meet the interests of those who attend. The emphasis is on lifelong learning, building self-confidence, increasing environmental awareness, healthy eating and emotional and physical wellbeing. We are very open to identify and enact new opportunities which fulfil these objectives.
