kind words from an ace parent
"My son is autistic and attends ACE Activities for people with learning disabilities. ACE Activities is an invaluable service that enables my son to join in with the working volunteering projects and weekly run social activity sessions.
This service has made such a difference to my son's quality of life, he is able to work as part of a team which has helped with his confidence and self worth. He is encouraged to learn new skills, try new activities and to socially interact with other people in our local community. These opportunities and life experiences have helped him achieve many new goals in his life. I am very grateful to ACE Activities for all the fabulous work that they do, they are always kind, caring, patient and encouraging and they always treat their members of ACE Activities with the upmost respect and in return the members flourish in all that they do."
