TEENS+ (Transitional Education, Extra Needs Support) - Project
Teens+ is a full time transitional education project for young adults with learning difficulties and complex and severe communication needs aged 17 to their 20s.
Funded by Better Breaks, this short movie shows the benefits of the wide range of organised activities (such as swimming, bowling, going to the cinema, befriending sessions) both on young adults and their families, that can have essential carefree time for themselves.
It is a unique service which provides further education, life and social skills, offers work placement support, transition to ownership of tenancies and lifelong learning, to young people who, due to their needs, would ordinarily be excluded from accessing any form of further education once they have left school.
