Ulster Rugby vs Cardiff Blues

TAKING A ‘BIG STEP FORWARD’ WITH MENCAP

Tonight Mencap NI can proudly stand up and say that thanks to Ulster Rugby - we are one step closer to making our dream of a new children and families’ centre a reality. So far Ulster Rugby - the players, employees and you superhero fans have helped to raise £13,219.46! On behalf of the children and adults with a learning disability in Northern Ireland who you will help through this new centre, Mencap would like to say a HUGE THANK YOU to all our Superheroes!

Mencap’s new Children and Families’ Centre has reached a major construction milestone, as the main steel work and first floor of the building have now been completed! The new centre will open early next year and will support children with a learning disability and their families to have the best possible future. As construction proceeds at a fast pace, we now start looking at the some of the new areas planned for inside the building, such as the exciting new multi-sensory play area and a brand new soft play area. To find out more about the new centre and how it will look please visit www.mencapbigstepforward.org Children and Families’ Centre-Super Fast Progress!
