What people say about us...
Our Activities
Cookery Group
The Cookery Group prepares and cooks a two-course meal, which they share together at lunchtime. The group members socialise with friends, while learning a broad range of basic cookery skills focused on good hygiene and making healthy choices.
Social Activity Days
JOIN members can meet up with their friends and get to know new people while participating in a variety of social activities, games and quizzes.
Wellbeing Wednesdays
In the mornings, the group goes for walks and participates in games, Yoga, and/or Tai Chi to stay mobile and active. In the afternoons, they learn new ways to relax by joining in with various therapies to stay healthy and happy.
Arts & Crafts
The Arts & Crafts Group meets every Thursday to participate in a variety of creative art workshops. The group has fun with their friends while learning new skills.
Out & About Group
Enables people with learning disabilities to make friendships and to become more active and independent in their local community.

Exciting news...
Just before Christmas JOIN was awarded a People’s Postcode Lottery Grant of £30,000.
We were awarded the money because someone from the Keighley area won £1million on the People’s Postcode Lottery earlier in the year and when this happens, some lucky local charities in the area get awarded a grant too.
So, thanks to the support from players of the People’s Postcode Lottery we have £30,000 to spend on refurbishing JOIN’s premises. We have already spent some of the money on buying and fitting new flooring on the 1st floor. We are also going to fit new flooring in the upstairs toilets, renovate the bar, buy new tables, chairs and other equipment and make a safe outside seating area and sensory garden.
