Public benefits

The direct benefits that flow from this purpose are the breaking down of isolation, enhancing the independence and improving the quality of life of people with a disability. These benefits are evidenced through the increasing numbers of people availing of our services and the very positive feedback received from individuals,their carers and

parents. There is no harm arising from any of the purposes. The charity's beneficiaries are those with a disability, their parents, and carers primarily in the Craigavon area. There is no private benefit flowing from the purpose of our organisation.
