Day Opportunities For Young Adults With Profound And Multiple Learning Disabilities (PMLD).

We are delighted to announce, ‘the hive‘ will be coming soon. A brand new purpose built facility specifically designed for those with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD) and complex health and medical needs in the heart of Chelmsford. Facilities will include a physical development area, cushion mat flooring, a fully accessible wet room, hydro pool, overhead hoists, access to adapted equipment and augmentative and alternative communication systems; all to support the individual needs of the members.

Currently, there are very few facilities in Essex that can meet the needs of those with PMLD and we increasingly find ourselves unable to support those with more complex needs. As advocates of peoples rights and strong believers that everyone deserves opportunities to live a more independent and fulfilling life, we set ourselves the mission to change that, introducing…The Hive.

TRIAL SESSIONS ARE NOW AVAILABLE

Trial sessions are available  to allow potential members to come along and try activities out and about in the community, get to know the team and find out more. For any enquiries, please call 07880 645273 or email thehive@independenceproject.co.uk

access to adventures out in the community with friends

The Hive will cater for young adults (9:30am – 3:30pm Monday – Friday) who are not suited to a traditional structured learning environment. Instead, the focus will be on delivering highly specific activities tailored to each individual’s needs with sensory based activities in a calm and productive environment to support their ongoing personal development. Also, promoting access to adventures and learning opportunities out in the community that will encourage social inclusion and strengthen their personal social skills and development.
