Allsorts Gloucestershire

Who we are

Allsorts is a place where disabled children can truly be themselves - embracing both the everyday and the extraordinary - without pressure to fit in. Their families can access much needed support as they strive for rich lives for their children. We provide a busy timetable of activities for 0-25’s with additional needs in Gloucestershire. Additionally, their families get access to an essential community of people who ‘get it’, reducing isolation and loneliness. With increased resilience and confidence, Allsorts families can thrive, have fun, and support one another! 

YuGo is our commercial arm providing accessible exercise for people of all ages and abilities. Our mission is to engage and inspire people to enjoy healthy living designed for them. YuGo’s distributable profits are re-invested into Allsorts.
