We provide care and support to those with a learning disability, ensuring that they have opportunities to try new activities, make new friends and experience greater levels of independence. We’ll make full use of the outdoor heated pool and tricycles and bicycles for exploring the site. Together we can swing on the low ropes, hit the archery target and sing around the campfire. We learn about God’s love for us through Bible stories and times of worship that are planned in lots of exciting multi-sensory ways.
There are guidelines on expected behaviour and ability, so an additional application form will be sent to you before your child’s place is confirmed. This also allows us to properly meet their individual needs.
This holiday is based at Great Wood (TA5 1HN) which is a secure site surrounded by woods owned by Scripture Union in the Quantocks near Bridgwater. Holidays are able to use the outdoor swimming pool, low ropes course and archery facilities as well as explore the fantastic countryside nearby. Young people sleep in en-suite cabins with 4-8 people per room.
The site is suitable for wheelchairs but please contact the holiday leader BEFORE booking to discuss specific programme issues.
