Over a period of 3 years a body of evidence was created based on interviews, meetings, focus groups and other means of consultation with both professionals and young people with disabilities, plus parents and carers. This revealed an overwhelming need for activities for young people from age 17 upwards, in particular once they have completed their entitlement to full time education, whether in school, college or residential setting. This local body of evidence has been further confirmed by research carried out on a national basis, including government and third sector reports.
Due to the overwhelming amount of evidence RAY Ceredigion and Green Rocket Futures have come together through a mutual interest in creating a more equal level of opportunity for young people with disabilities, to pilot improving outcomes for disabled young people who have completed full time education, or are approaching the end of full time education.
