Whizz-Kidz Youth Club for young wheelchair users
- Local Offer
Our free youth club for young wheelchair users aged between 8 and 24 years old is based at the Milestone School in Gloucester.
The club is designed to promote confidence and independence and to provide young wheelchair users with the opportunity to make new friends and to try new activities and games.
We have a team of health care assistants who can meet the personal and medical needs of the majority of our club members, so if you sign up in advance parents and carers often do not need to stay for the day. Each month we hire external providers to run workshops.
