Relationships and Sexuality


KIDS run three groups in the South West for for young disabled people to discuss Relationships and Sexuality.

The groups are in South Gloucestrshire, Bath and Bristol and meet once every three weeks and are for young people aged 13 - 25

The groups are discussion based and planned around the needs of the young people.
