Kangaroos

Kangaroos is a registered charity, operating in Mid Sussex.

We provide year-round clubs and trips for children and adults with learning disabilities and additional complex needs. We have been operating for 30 years and work with around 400 families in our area. Our vision is that people with learning disabilities can exercise their right to leisure, play and recreational activity in a safe and supported environment throughout their lifetime.

​Our vision is that people with learning disabilities can exercise their right to leisure, play and recreational activity in a safe and supported environment throughout their lifetime.

We support children, teenagers and adults with severe learning disabilities including those with mobility issues, epilepsy, autism, challenging behaviour and complex medical needs. We also have family and sibling programmes to provide respite and support for those with a disabled family member. We provide short breaks and activity clubs with a commitment to supporting people with learning disabilities for their whole lives. The safety of all those attending our clubs and activities is paramount and our well trained staff are all experienced in supporting young people with learning difficulties and those with additional and complex needs. Above all, we want the people we support to have fun and enjoy themselves at our clubs and activities. Our aim is to provide a supportive environment where our members can develop social and life skills to help build confidence, self esteem and independence. The short breaks provide valuable respite for parents and carers while giving them peace of mind that their young person is in a safe and supportive environment.
