Groups and activities

It’s important that all young people have access to spaces that allow them to be independent, make friends, have fun, and feel supported and understood.

Here at Leeds Mencap we have specialist, fully trained staff and the facilities to make that possible!

Our groups and activities run predominantly from The Vinery Centre – a warm and welcoming space that is inclusive and accessible. Our group leaders facilitate the fun, but the children and young people are at the heart of the activities they decide to do!

Groups also have opportunities to go on visits to local venues across Leeds, to further develop their independence and provide more opportunities for exploration.

What people say about our groups

“Youth Club has done wonders for my child's self esteem. He has grown extremely confident and is happy with who he is.”

“My daughter has never really had a friend that really gets it, that really understands. At Sibs this is exactly what she gets. Friends who she can relate to, friends who she can talk to with no judgement and above all else, a chance to be a carefree child like she deserves.”

“He felt included, felt although he had friends and was able to access a world outside home and school. It was lovely to have him be excited about something.”
