Learning & Other Disabilities

They develop new and exciting opportunities to support social and economic inclusion for people with learning disabilities – enabling them to play a part, gain in confidence and get the most out of life in their own community.

Streets Ahead was set up to enable people with learning disabilities to be supported in their own homes. They offer support, guidance and practical help to a range of people living in the Scottish Borders. They also offer support to their families and carers.

They work with adults aged 18 and over and also support young people coming to the end of their time at high school.

Community-based volunteers and free online resources help individuals with any disability, of any age, to use all kinds of digital technology.
