ME2 Club
Me2 Club is an inclusion charity for children and young people with additional needs and disabilities in the Wokingham and Reading Boroughs. Our purpose is to tackle the social isolation and loneliness experienced by children not being able to access mainstream leisure activities.
We support children and young people aged 5-19 to take part in mainstream activities by recruiting and training volunteers to ‘buddy’ 1:1 with them so they can join in and have fun. These activities could include; swimming lessons, gymnastics, uniform groups, sports clubs or drama. The cost of the activity is covered by parents/carers but support from a volunteer is free of charge to families. An activity must be set up before you can register with us. No formal diagnosis is required to receive our service, if they need a bit of extra support, we can help!
