Young People
At NMC we assist and enable young people with disabilities to achieve their aspirations in life.
It may be living independently, learning to drive, accessing education, starting work or anything they can think of!
We have a positive and realistic approach which focuses on abilities rather than disability and ensures each individual has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
It is a journey that involves the whole family of that individual and so we make sure they are also supported and reassured on this journey.
Every young person has to make these life changing decisions and we endeavour to lift the barriers and face the challenges head on.
Support and Events
Are you a young person with a neuromuscular condition or live alongside someone who does?
If so, the NMC is here to support you during the exciting and challenging stage of life as you make choices and plan your lifestyle as a young adult.
We encourage you to contact us and start to get to know the NMC and find out what we offer you – we guarantee its more than you think!
Some of the things we offer, include:
-
Social events (watching a film with popcorn or having a chat while munching on pizza).
-
Activity days which are for friends and family as well.
-
All kinds of exciting events such as Bushcraft and Creative drama.
-
Volunteering / work experience opportunities.
