Sailship Training and Learning for Life

Offer work skills training, vocational enterprise and social, therapeutic, life skills provisions for adults living with a learning disability or a mental health support need

How it can help

Sailship TLL is a day opportunity provider for adults with learning disabilities.

They train young people, with special educational needs/disabilities, towards employment, by offering ASDAN Employability qualifications at entry level 2/3 or level 1&2 utilising enterprise as subject matter to achieve criteria for the qualification.

Subjects taught to gain the qualification include Commercial Horticulture, Preserves Manufacture/Retail, Catering and Customer Care and Floristry.

They specialise in supporting people with a severe learning disability, requiring 1:1 support for learning or therapeutic activity.

The charity also offers support to people for improved mental health and well-being, recovery from illness, or injury, through therapeutic programmes.

They also offer an Accessible Pathway for any member of the local community or Community Group to utilise for a gentle walk which takes the visitor around the Sailship site. Following the walk visitors can access the cafe for a healthy snack and/or drink. The pathway is funded by Active Essex and is a great way to enjoy a walk or guided tour. The Accessible Pathway visit must be booked in advance by calling 07875 639 188.
