Take a look at our activites

The activities and social events we run are for adults with learning disabilities registered with the Building Circles charity. 

If you have a favourite activity or would like to try something new please get in touch - we always welcome new suggestions!

Socialise at a skittles game

Skittles has always been a firm favourite at Building Circles. It's a chance to meet up with friends, enjoy some lunch and of course some competition with a game or two of skittles.

Join one of our allotments

 We currently have 3 allotment patches in Gloucestershire

  • Kingsway, Gloucester
  • Stonehouse
  • Prestbury, Cheltenham 

 The allotment groups tend to run from March to October and are led by fantastic volunteers who are fully DBS checked. These groups create safe spaces to learn more about gardening, socialise with peers, and of course enjoy the fresh produce + tea and cake of course!

 

Join us on a boat trip

We organise boat trips with The Willow Trust in spring and summertime. The boats are wheelchair accessible and provide a calm and relaxing day out for all. Everyone gets a chance to meet the captain and steer the boat.

Celebrate at our Christmas parties

We love to end the year with a big Christmas party, inviting all of our participants and volunteers for some music, dancing, food and a raffle.

All of our Social Buddy and Gig Buddy participants will have the opportunity to attend the events and groups we organise throughout the year.
