In 2024 our group went on a fabulous coach trip to Wroxham in the Norfolk Broads. The weather stayed dry and after enjoying lunch in one of the many cafes in Wroxham, we then took a leisurely 2 hour boat trip down the Broads, taking in the beautiful views of the many houses on the broads, and the fresh Norfolk air before making the journey home again.

I wonder what journey we will take in 2025?

At TADDS, our activities are more than just a way to pass the time – they’re about creating moments of joy, building connections, and making everyone feel welcome. From weekly fun to special outings, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

• Fun and engaging options for all abilities
• A supportive, welcoming environment
• Opportunities to connect with others and build friendships
• Special events and outings to look forward to

After a morning of activities, why not stay for a freshly cooked two-course lunch? It’s a great way to relax, chat, and enjoy a delicious meal together.

Lunch costs just £5 and you book on arrival but by 10:30am on the day.
