Parkside’s aim as a charity is to give both children and adults the opportunity to develop their individual skills and take part in activities within the local community. Needs can vary from requiring support to socialise with friends, to participating in leisure activities, meeting new people, developing life skills, work experience opportunities and providing respite for other family members.  By reaching out into the community, Parkside aims to develop and strengthen its links with local people and organisations, creating opportunities for everyone to be involved and included.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide support to all children and adults with learning disabilities and any associated special needs by actively involving them, their families, and circles of support in creating and developing services.

We will always listen to our service users and provide innovative and progressive services which reflect personal needs and wishes.

Our challenge is to always respond proactively to changing circumstances.

Needs can vary from help socialising with friends, participating in leisure activities and meeting new people, to developing life skills and work experience opportunities. At the same time, we are providing respite for other family members.  By reaching out across the community, Parkside aims to develop and strengthen its links with local people and organisations, creating opportunities for everyone to be involved and included.
