The UK's first fully inclusive exercise, play and leisure centre

Go Bananas for Gympanzees!

29th September - 6th November

Let’s go bananas this October! We’ve already raised £9 million, but from 29th September to 3rd of November, we need one last public push and have five weeks to raise £350,000. Help us open a permanent centre where disabled children and young people can play, move and belong.
Join us in fundraising this Autumn and help us open the doors.

Our Mission

To create fully inclusive spaces that improve health outcomes for disabled children and young people by offering regular exercise and therapeutic play while addressing the isolation faced by these children and their families.

Why We Help

There are 90,000 young people with disabilities within an hour of Bristol and over 1.8 million in the UK.

77% of children with disabilities cannot access regular leisure facilities so can’t play, exercise or socialise in the same ways as their peers.

"You've opened up a world in which we can just exist exactly how we need to."
