Newcastle based charity Cornerstone have set up a new initiative which will give people living with learning disabilities a chance to try a range of new activities.
The Welcome Project operates weekly and is possible due to a £3,000 grant from the Newcastle Building Society Community Fund. People with disabilities and carers across the city will be able to try out everything from arts and crafts to cookery.
The money is being used to pay for the extra equipment and facilities needed to put on these sessions and this adds to wide range of community projects that Cornerstone currently offer.
