The

a
main
focus
in
reaching
children,
although
there
will
be
activities
which
reach
out
to
older
people.
It
is
about
making
sure
that
all
age
groups
in
society can have a good life, whoever they are, and no matter what problems they may face.
The
aim
is
to
make
everyone
aware

activities
children

young
people
need
to
help
them to be happy, successful, healthy and safe.
We want our children and young people to
· Develop life long learning skills for further learning
· Become more socially aware
· Become good citizens
We also wish to:
· Improve work opportunities and experience for people with learning disabilities
· Raise their quality of life
· Reduce the risk of Social Exclusion
· Assist with information and offering support
We also wish that
·
Older
people
should
have
the
opportunity
to
participate
in
society,
including
through
employment and volunteering, and should not have to overcome age barriers to achieve this.
·
Older
people
are
free
from
the
disadvantages
of,
isolation
and
neglect,
so
they
can
live
with dignity as valued, respected and involved members of society.
