Open Door Centre
The Open Door Centre, based in Gorse Hill, Swindon, provides a specialist day resource for adults with learning disabilities, who may also have physical disabilities and/or mental health issues. This is a valuable resource for people within the borough who have a variety of special needs.
The Open Door Centre exists to make a positive difference in the lives of adults with learning disabilities, enabling our members to achieve their highest potential. We do this by providing a range of activities within a safe, supportive and non-judgemental environment, and members are involved in every level of decision making about the running of the Centre. Members are encouraged to be independent adults, understanding their rights and choices, in order to become respected, confident, valued members of society.
The Open Door Centre celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2010 with lots of events, and fundraising. We raised over £10,000 for the premises fund and our long term goal is to run a business attached to the Centre so that we can be self-supporting.
