Circles Network Celebrates!
In September 2024, Circles Network is 30! In 1994, founder and Chief Executive Mandy Neville,
Circles Network is a UK wide voluntary organisation, established with an educational objective to build inclusive communities on the foundations of justice, advocacy, empowerment and friendship.
Circles Network supports thousands of people to be included in community life. The individuals we support are experiencing social exclusion or are at risk of being isolated through disability, long term illness or other disadvantage. Circles Network is focused on creating opportunities that inspire people who are searching to make positive change in their lives.
We take a unique person-centred and flexible approach, which means we tailor our support and groups to meet the needs of the participants we work with.
Our mission is to support disabled and disadvantaged people of all ages in transformational and empowering ways to live fulfilling and inclusive lives.
Our vision is to create inclusive communities where all lives are valued.
Working in both rural and urban settings countless projects have been set up, tried and tested and where successful, shared widely with other like-minded providers.
Circles Network has four main sectors of activity mentioned above, all of which are threaded with the golden arch of social inclusion and the firmly held set of values that define and shape us.
The four represent projects and services in the areas of: Advocacy, Community Support, Animal Assisted Learning in our Equine programmes and The Academy for Inspiring Inclusion.
Being open minded helps our facilitators to think in different ways and explore new pathways with individuals. Our success relies on dedicated teams and many partnerships in a range of different shapes and sizes.
Volunteering makes a real difference to people’s lives and it could give you a life changing experience you’ll never forget.
