Young and Free, is a “buddying” and befriending service for disabled young people with physical and sensory impairments aged 16-25 in the Bristol area.
As well as group wide events in a range of locations we also can offer a social outlet on a 1:1 basis which we actively encourage.
We do a range of activities including:

We are looking for befriending champions to help support our work and provide our members with a friendly face and someone to talk to and share their interests with.
