Supporting adults with learning difficulties in Elmbridge

Thursday 23 April 2015. CSH Surrey's Community Fund Panel agreed to a grant of £2,000 for Elmbridge Community Link (ECL), a registered charity that provides support to adults with a learning difficulty in Elmbridge. The charity aims to provide various opportunities for its members (currently over 100 local people) to broaden their horizons; this is achieved through running projects teaching new skills and improving existing abilities.

Funding was requested by Elmbridge Community Link to enable the group to run a new evening Sport and Exercise project called ‘AllSports' aimed mainly at young adults with learning disabilities. The £2000 granted will allow the group to offer these new regular weekly two hour activities.
