About ECO WORK-SHOP CIC
ECO Work-Shop is a not-for-profit organisation that was set up to provide purposeful work-based activity sessions for adults with learning disabilities and autism.
Work-Shop came about when three mothers of adult children with learning disabilities, met for a coffee to discuss their frustrations and fears about the future which awaited their children. The parents were appalled to discover the lack of purpose awaiting their children and other disabled adults.
We set out to improve the well-being and lives of learning disabled and/or autistic adults. We support and encourage those who attend to achieve so much more than they ever believed was possible! Learning diverse new skills through stimulating and varied work activities, participants become part of the adult workforce. Building on the skills gained from education, Work-Shop carefully extends each participant’s abilities by tailoring the activity to each person’s level, gently and steadily supporting the increase in skills required to complete each task.
