ReachOut Plus
Details
Want to organise a day treat for your youth group on the Grand Union Canal? Need a facility for meetings or conferences? Looking at a venue for your weekend / week long youth residential.
ReachOut Plus exists to create opportunities that change people's lives. It does this by offering resources for use by youth, voluntary and community groups, particularly ensuring access for people with special needs and physical disabilities. ReachOut Plus (ROP) operates a small fleet of canal boats based on the Grand Union Canal near Hemel Hempstead and The Chellington Centre in North Bedfordshire, providing residential accommodation for a wide range of groups.
ROP grew out of the Diocesan Youth Service and was, until September 2008 overseen by the Diocesan Youth Officer. It has been around for over 25 years and has constantly worked to meet the needs of young people and those with special needs and disabilities. Under its new director things are changing as ROP gears up to ensure its relevance for the current needs, whilst also ensuring that those who have used the resources over the years are still served to the same high standard. We have a close relationship with ROP and together developed the Enable Holiday programme, details of which can be found under our Opportunities section as we are always after volunteers!
