CP friends

20/03/2026

Around 25 of us got together today for much needed social time. Giving us the opportunity to laugh together, have a good moan or even help each other with a problem.
For a lot of people it can be hard to find a group of mates you can rely on to make you feel safe, happy, heard & connected.
Here’s just a few of mine, photo from today’s get together at CP friends 💚

This afternoon we had a visitor from Wolverhampton homes. Nick gave a talk on fire safety. 🧯
It was interesting & gave us all extra knowledge, which is always a good thing!
It was a very busy group today, Friday socials with CP friends are so much fun! 💚

We have extra visitors coming to CP friends on Friday!
Evelyn & Nick will be giving us a little talk on safety & if their shift pattern allows-someone from the fire service might be joining us to chat about fire safety/evacuation…..interesting & important as we often have a very full room with as many as 10+ wheelchair users too.
Hope to see you there!

Wow, today was a busy one! Lots of new faces - which is always lovely, new friendships are an exciting part of life! 💚
The tombola was popular too, look at the size of the bear this lovely lady won! (Look out for him again though as he may just make his way back to be regifted) 🧸😂🧸😂🧸

March is cerebral palsy awareness month & today marks two years since we posted details of my brand new friendship group CP friends!
Having a disability can sometimes feel lonely, especially when the world isn’t designed with your needs in mind. Simple activities that others take for granted may require extra effort, & it can be isolating when people don’t fully understand your experiences.
Social events & new environments might feel overwhelming or unaccommodating, which can create a sense of being left out.
On top of physical or cognitive challenges, there can also be emotional struggles, such as feeling misunderstood or overlooked.
Even so, people with disabilities are very capable of building strong communities & meaningful connections, reminding us how important empathy, inclusion & support truly are.
We are so proud that the group is a huge success, with new friends joining even after almost two years! Keep spreading the word!
Thank you 💚

I think this video sums up the fun we have when CP friends go out & about 🎉

Wow! What an amazing afternoon! We had a quick head count & almost 50 came today! 💚
CP friends not only connects people, it creates a safe, accessible environment for adults with disabilities to be themselves, share stories, support each other & have lots of laughs along the way.
The weekly tombola certainly keeps us all entertained too! 🎁
Thank you to everyone involved for their on-going support, with providing suitable gifts, having a go on the tombola or for coming along to the group!
See you next week!
Friday 12-2pm 💚
