Cre8ing Opportunities

Cre8ing Opportunities is a new service which brings together a number of different elements.

The purpose of cre8ing Opportunities is to look at new and imaginative Services that people can “buy” with Direct payments or personal Budgets. Cre8ing Opportunities encourages staff and customers to “think outside the Box”

The different parts of Cre8ing opportunities are:

  • Arts and Crafts Club which meets every Thursday from 10am to 1pm at the Tudor Centre, Bewcastle Grove, Leicester. For people with any disability, just a love of art
  • Panache (or the Loughborough Group) which meets on a Friday at St Peters Community Centre, Storer Road, Loughborough from 10am to 3pm, for people with any disabilities
  • 9teen which meets on a Monday at 2 Oak Spinney park, Ratby Lane, Leicester LE3 3AW. This is a small group of young people with exceptionally high levels of physical care needs. The facilities at oak Spinney Park meet the needs of the members of 9teen
  • Wednesday Group meets, not surprisingly, every Wednesday from 10am to 3pm

During college holidays Cre8ing Opportunities will develop activities if people want. If you are interested in any of these opportunities contact Katie Barradell on 0116 2318720 or email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
