What is The Collective?

The Collective is being developed as a community where disabled people can build friendships, belong, take part in meaningful activity, and access opportunities shaped around the lives they want to live.

We're still growing — many parts of The Collective are being built together with the people who'll use them.

Our first provision

The Collective is developing a specialist day provision for young adults aged 19–25 with profound and multiple learning disabilities and significant physical support needs — still in development, not yet operational.

A welcome from Jake

The Collective started with a simple question: what happens when education ends, but the need for friendship, purpose, opportunity and belonging doesn’t? We’re building something shaped around people, not systems — and we’re only at the beginning.

Our purpose

The Collective is developing a specialist day provision for young adults aged 19–25 with profound and multiple learning disabilities and significant physical support needs.
