Chance to Meet Lincolnshire
Chance to Meet started over 10 years ago after families across Lincolnshire spoke to us about the lack of accessible activities and opportunities available for their children. Together we created Chance to Meet, a small, locally driven service which today continues to be shaped by our members. Chance to Meet provides a friendly, accessible environment where children who are D/deaf, hard of hearing or have a sight impairment, including those with additional needs, and their families can come together to enjoy a range of fully accessible activities which support their personal, social and educational development.
We open most of our activities up to the whole family, enabling families to spend quality time together doing activities that are suitable for everyone.
Chance to Meet never stays the same, our members help choose what we do and where we go and we have different activities taking place all year round from Christmas parties, visits to local farms and activity play centres to bowling sessions and sports activities.
If you would like to find out more about Chance to Meet and become part of our Chance to Meet family, please get in touch.
