At Togle we believe young disabled people have equal rights to be involved
in everyday leisure activities. Many of our members do not have the opportunity
to make friends locally or access local activities. Togle encourages young
people to do so through friendship and fun. |
Urgently needed
volunteers
in Tonbridge, Medway, Dartford and Gravesham! |
 |
To enable this to happen the Togle member chooses a club that they
wish to attend. This can be anything from play groups to cubs to Duke of
Edinburgh Awards to climbing. They are then introduced to a volunteer who
will attend the club with them helping them to settle in and make new friends. |
| The volunteer will give as much or as little support as is necessary
to help the young person to be fully included. Their role is to encourage
other members of the club to include the Togle member. When everybody feels
comfortable, the Togle volunteer will gradually withdraw to aid full inclusion. |
