Who we are....

First things first, the faces behind the project..

Welcome to The skills centre.....

Bridging Gaps, Building Lives

At The Skills Centre, we provide a safe, welcoming space where adults with learning disabilities and young individuals can grow in confidence, learn new skills, and build meaningful connections.

We’re here to bridge the gap between ability and opportunity—focusing on life skills, independence, and community inclusion. Through engaging activities, supported learning, and social interaction, we help individuals thrive at their own pace, in their own way.

We also partner closely with parents, carers, and enablers, offering support, guidance, and a true sense of community for everyone involved.

Whether it's through hands-on workshops, creative projects, or a simple cup of tea and conversation, The Skills Centre is where growth begins and lives are built—together.

🌱 Our Dream: A Pocket-Friendly Pantry for Newton Abbot

We’re hoping that we can bring Newton Abbot’s very first Pocket-friendly Pantry to life!

We understand how tough things have become—rising bills, stretched budgets, and the daily challenge of keeping the cupboards stocked with essentials. That’s why we’re doing everything we can to create a space where local residents can access affordable, everyday items in a dignified, friendly, and supportive environment.

Our pantry will hopefully be launching as soon as we can, offering a helping hand when it's needed most. It's not just about food—it's about community, compassion, and connection.

Stay tuned—help is on the way.

Our Journey so far......

Hey Everyone! 

Welcome, we are all about community here and we have been listening to what Newton Abbot needs. We have had a lot of support already for some incredible organisations in Teignbridge, of which we are so grateful. We have had a few hurdles to get to where we are now but we are very excited to say that everything is moving in the right direction.

 2024 - We cannot wait to open the doors to our inclusive skills centre. Please keep checking back for more updates.

Can you help?

We are thrilled to offer these incredible services to Teignbridge! However, running them can be quite costly. That's why we would be overjoyed to receive any donations that can help us continue providing these amazing provisions to our community. Thank you for your support!
