Support and Activities

People often ask us what activities we can offer, but we prefer to hear what people want to achieve, and then work out how we are going to do it!

The people use VACS for all sorts of reasons: leisure activities, help with health, learning new skills, help with communication, emotional or practical support, help with behaviour problems, getting out, meeting people...whatever your goals in life, we'll try to support you to reach them.

The plans we make are always flexible, and you can change things at any time. If you’re part of VACS, you’re in control.
