These sessions teach work skills, independent living skills and also focus on staying fit and active. Adults attending Journey's Day Service have conditions from birth impacting cognitive and adaptive ability such as Down's Syndrome, Williams Syndrome, Fragile X and Prader-Willi.

Your experience can be gained in a number of Sectors such as Education, Emergency Services, Catering, Hospitality, Leisure and Sport, Military, Retail, and you may have wider interests which are also areas we train Clients in.
