Our Projects
We have lots of new things going on here at Beam we’d like to tell you about.
Newstart4U – an employment and volunteering support project
Beam is a delivery partner for Newstart4U, a new employment and volunteering support project. We can now offer bespoke one-to-one guidance for people with learning disabilities who would like help finding a job or becoming a volunteer. Every Monday morning Beam hosts a support hub where people can come along, meet the team and get involved in looking at opportunities that are available to them.
Training Courses
Through the spring and summer Beam is going to running a number of training courses. The first one of these has been designed to help people improve their independent living skills. The course will help you: –
- To develop numeracy and literacy skills.
- Learn about budgeting in the kitchen and understanding food labels in the shops.
- To develop home cooking skills.
- Develop a healthy diet.

New Clubs
Beam is most pleased to say that plans are in place to start a couple of new clubs. We have a gardening club and arts and crafts club beginning to take shape. We also are considering setting up a woman’s group. At the moment places on these groups are limited but please call the office if you are interested in finding out more.
