Avenues East LEISURE (part of Community Support Services)

Avenues East

Our LEISURE service (part of Community Support Services) encourages and enables people with disabilities to take part in activities which help to improve their health, wellbeing, social skills and independence.

We do this by organising a range of activities, social clubs, short breaks and events throughout the year which provide a great deal of fun and enjoyment for everyone.

Leisure activities- 

During the year, we offer day trips and short breaks to the people that use our services. In previous years we have taken groups of people on theatre trips, visits to theme parks, supported holidays, mersea island festival and have taken part in The Royal Hospital School games.
