We work closely with local amenities and services in order to offer our service users a wide variety of activities, learning and work opportunities, Such as larch fields community center, the unicorn horse riding center, maxis mates, Hope animal sanctuary, the Grenfell club and the owl center at Kirkleatham.
We have a packed activity planner for each individual to suit all ranges of pastimes and abilities.
If it’s a sunny day we are a short distance from the award-winning Redcar and Saltburn beaches with all their seafront attractions, and if the beach isn’t your thing, then we are 5-minute walk from Coatham marsh Redcar’s own nature reserve, or how about a round of golf on Yorkshires oldest golf course. If our service users wish to go further afield, we offer trips to Newcastle, Whitby and York just to name a few.
If it’s a bit colder we have the local arcades, new regent cinema as well as a series of restaurants and cafes.
If going out is not your thing, we offer a range of inhouse activities such as movie nights, arts and crafts, collage making, music and dance, gardening, decorating t shirts, rock painting, board games, knitting, miniature painting, and video games night. As well as celebrating sporting advents and national days with themes and activities based around these set days.
