Disabled People’s Empowerment

We provide disabled children and adults with the opportunity to learn, create, build social connections, and play an active role in their community through our weekly arts, life skills, social and wellbeing clubs.
Our activities are designed to empower and encourage independence by building confidence and communication skills, dexterity and coordination as well as increase life experiences and engagement with the local community through our spectacular projects, performances and special events.
Along with the therapeutic and skills-based benefits, these projects provide a valued and consistent environment and routine for participants and respite for their families and carers.

Camberwell Incredibles
An arts collective of practising and learning diverse artists aged 19 to 65 years, meets every Monday and Tuesday, from 10:30am to 3:30pm during term-time at the Trinity Centre in Camberwell.
