Enjoy a social drink? Imagine if you never had the opportunity to go out with your mates socially? Open Door provides you with the opportunity to accompany residents from a local Mencap home to a nearby pub where 10 pin bowling or a social (non-alcoholic) drink are on offer. Other activities could include helping residents with creative/art projects, staying in and playing board games at the home or entertaining them if for example you play a musical instrument. Mencap residents all have some degree of mental disability and the opportunity to socialise, created by the Open Door Project, is invaluable to them with both parties gaining new skills and friendships. The opportunities are endless, only constrained within your own imagination but whatever you chose to do, you will really make their day in the process!
