Yes I Can is running 3 residential weekends as part of our transition to adulthood project. These are open to all 16-25 year olds living with Duchenne along with your parent/carers and will take place at a completely accessible activity centre. You will be totally independent from your home environment and among your peers. You will be able to take part in a variety of amazing activities, some of which you’ll have thought you could never do, experiencing independence and friendship alongside developing vital skills and building self esteem.
“It’s brilliant to be able to do things here that I can’t do in every day life” Archie, aged 19 who lives with Duchenne
These weekends are what are all about – supporting you to live your best lives and achieve anything you set your minds to!
