Additional Information

Superstars is a unique and dynamic club for people with learning difficulties.  We  provide care, support, fun and friendship in a safe environment, whilst giving members the opportunity to experience new challenges and learn new skills. The club was founded in 2005 by the family of Jon McAvoy, a teenager with Down’s Syndrome and Autism.  It aims to address the lack of any such provision whilst coincidentally, providing respite for families and carers.
