The Bletchingley Skills Centre is a training centre for physically impaired adults, offering a wide-ranging programme of educational and life skill courses run by able bodies and disabled volunteers. It was great to get a tour of the place, and I followed this up with a lively Q&A with the students. A special mention must go to Wendy Cope who, along with her team at the Centre, does a fantastic job supporting those physically impaired adults who go along so that they get the chance to further their skillset through the training provided.
