The Fort - Lowestoft

✨ Who are we? ✨
We are Lowestoft and District Mencap, a UK charity, based in Lowestoft, Suffolk, that supports people with learning disabilities.

We are a charity/non-profit community driven electronic & hobby gaming hub near Lowestoft High Street 🙂 Learn more about our charity over at https://www.twitch.tv/thefortlowestoft/about and https://gofund.me/02aa6fb3 People with mild to moderate learning disabilities often fall between the cracks when it comes to getting support, as they are not seen as severe enough to receive things like Direct

Payments, but are still in need of guidance and support, to be able to live independently, find work, and feel like they are a part of their community. We provide social support via our two inclusive public community spaces: ❤ The Unity Centre ❤ and ❤ The Fort.❤
