Some 40 people aged 20 - 68 years attend on a daily basis. All having multiple disabilities, most arising form cerebral palsy and related impairments. Members come from all over Gloucestershire.

We have now extended our reach to more disabled people, including teenagers at school, by opening the facilities for hire from mid-afternoon to mid-evening.

My day at St Vincent’s by Gavin Shipway

I started at St Vincent’s in September 2002. I look forward to Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays when I come to the centre.

My favourite place is the Art Room. I like cooking and making things for my family.

I love the hot tub because it's relaxing and warm and I like splashing the staff.

I have made a lot of friends at the centre. We all have a laugh and get on well. The staff are very caring.

My day at St Vincent’s by Mitch North

I come to the centre on a Thursday. My favourite room is the Art Room. I like making difficult things and seeing the outcomes that I have achieved. I like it when I have new ideas and seeing how they turn out. And I also like to lick the spoon after I’ve made chocolate cakes!

The centre is good fun and I enjoy my days very much.
