Southend Mencap invites you to join our Friendship Group, a relaxed and happy space created for adults with learning disabilities to meet new people and feel part of a community. We know how important it is to have a place where you can be yourself, and our group offers exactly that. It is a safe and inclusive environment where everyone is welcome. When you visit, you can expect a very warm greeting from our team and other members. We spend our time chatting, sharing stories, and enjoying low-pressure activities like tabletop games, creative crafts, or listening to music together. There is always time for a cup of tea and a biscuit while catching up with friends. This group is perfect for anyone looking to boost their confidence, try something new, or simply enjoy a nice afternoon away from home. We pride ourselves on being a supportive space for families and carers too. We cannot wait to meet you and welcome you into our friendly community.
