Join us for an hour of story-telling with the wonderful group of recipients from The Nesbitt Center (TNC). The Nesbitt Centre is a charity that empowers adults with learning disabilities through vocational education and social enterprises. We are organizing an English storytelling volunteering activity for the specially-abled ADULT students of the Centre. 

Come make a difference by giving your time to help empower these special individuals to build their social skills and confidence, as they enjoy hearing stories about animals, food, and adventures. The theme for the story can be your own choice. TNC staff will be present during the session and they are happy to guide you in your choice.
