#PreparedForLife

This is a befriending role to visit a 75-year-old die hard Watford FC fan in Borehamwood. He is looking for a man to join him at home for a cup of tea, to watch Final Score with him, and in time perhaps take him in his wheelchair to feed the ducks nearby or to Church on a Sunday.

We have an ambitious vision for the UK to be the best place in the world for people with a learning disability to live happy and healthy lives.
