Welcome to our Website

Gr8mates is primarily a Club for teenagers and young adults with special needs (ranging from learning difficulties to profound and multiple disabilities including sensory impairment), but ordinary able bodied young people are most welcome.

Gr8mates works jointly with Werneth Young People Centre, a local Youth Club at George Lane, Bredbury.  The Youth Service provides the venue and the able bodied ordinary young people and GR8 MATES provide young people with special needs.  Upto eighteen young people with special needs attend at any one session.  We have one support worker to four young people with special needs plus we have two places per day for any young person who requires “one to one” support.
