Day trips

  • Day Trips to the Seaside
  • London sightseeing
  • Canal boat trips
  • Ten-Pin Bowling
  • Christmas Market visits
  • Theatre trips

Many of these are in the planning stages and will depend on costs and practicalities as to whether they can go ahead.

Please tell us if you would like to take part in any of these trips.

Can you help us?

Tell us Your Views

If you have a learning disability, or if you care for someone who does, please help us by telling us your views about Outings and Trips in this survey.

Support the Campaign

If you believe that new experiences should be accessible to all, regardless of disability, you can support our campaign to make it happen.

See our Never Seen, Never Been campaign page for more ways you can help, by spreading the word, volunteering, donating, or sponsoring a trip.

What is Guideposts’ experience?

Guideposts has over 50 years’ experience supporting people to live in their community, and take part in activities they would otherwise be excluded from.

Since the end of Covid restrictions, the people we support with learning disabilities have told us about their renewed enthusiasm for going on trips and excursions. We want to help.

Some of the experiences we have organised are:
