Our goal is to empower individuals to develop essential social and life skills. This is achieved in a variety of environments designed to provide opportunities for growth.
We achieve this through daily activities, trips and training courses. This includes team games, cooking healthy meals, sports and setting goals.
As a project, we provide a comfortable environment where people can be themselves without fear of isolation, judgment and abuse, thus offering an alternative to therapy. Through our work, we empower the person to feel part of the community and to contribute in a positive manner, rather than feeling isolated and lonely
At Jigsaw, we measure success in
various ways,
- Who was involved?
- Were they enthusiastic?
- What were the outcomes of the activity?
- Did everybody engage?
- How has the activity reduced anxiety and improved confidence
- What has the activity achieved?
- Has the activity given the person E’s- excitement,empowerment, entertainment?
- Did the members take responsibility for the activity?
- Programs are regularly evaluated.
- Can we learn from what we have done?
- Do parents/ carers have “happy tears” when seeing their person being accepted by their peers?
We would love to hear from you…
