We run three programmes: Into Work Support, Sports Activities and Social Engagement, including our monthly Funhouse Social Group.
Into Work Support
Looking for work can feel overwhelming, so we take it one step at a time. Our friendly job club and basic computer sessions help with everything from writing a CV to searching and applying for jobs online. In 2024/25 we helped 205 people, and 75% moved into employment, volunteering or training. You can refer yourself or be referred by Jobcentre Plus or another service.
When: Every Monday, 9.30am at All Saints Community Project Trust, Chatham, ME4 5NE.
Sports Activities
Our sports sessions are about having a go, getting active and meeting new people, not about being good at it. Activities include football, pool and snooker, bowling, archery, mini golf and karting. In 2024/25, 90% of participants tried a new sport and 80% told us their health and well-being had improved.
Football: Every Wednesday, 8.30pm at The Maplesden Noakes School, Maidstone, ME16 0TJ. £5 per person.
Pool: Every Tuesday, 12 noon at Maidstone Pool and Snooker Club, Maidstone, ME16 0SQ. £5 per person.
Social Engagement
Loneliness can be hard to talk about so we make it easy to get out and join in. Our social activities include board game sessions, cinema trips, countryside walks and day trips to places like Margate, Canterbury and Faversham. In 2024/25, 78% of people joined activities for the first time and 90% said their well-being had improved.
Funhouse Social Group
The Funhouse Social Group supports adults with disabilities to take part in bingo, raffles, indoor football, quizzes, karaoke, pool and other social activities. It meets once a month in a relaxed, safe and welcoming space where people can make friends, have fun and try something new. New faces are always welcome and you don’t need to know anyone before you come.
When: Last Wednesday of each month, 6.30pm at Shepway Community Centre, Maidstone, ME15 7JN. £5 per person.
