Spring into Action CIC Spring into Action is a community interest company based in Blackburn, Lancashire. The options on leaving school were college, then onto day centres.

We set up in 2012 and have a vision of an inclusive society where people with learning disabilities can fully participate. Spring into Action is a community interest company based in Accrington in East Lancashire. Our aims are to provide opportunities for people with learning disabilities to engage in activities, volunteer within services and find employment. We aim to raise awareness of the ability of people within the wider community, and raise aspirations of people with disabilities to achieve more. Our services and activities over the past ten years have been developed and delivered with people with lived experience and include: sports and arts projects, volunteer training including Sports Leaders awards; delivery of inclusion workshops. We also run a friendship and dating agency (), bringing people with learning disabilities and autistic adults together for meaningful friendships and relationships. Through this work we also run social events and deliver s*x and relationship workshops. We were set up by Lucy Hamlin, Rachael McHugh and Dawn Vickers in 2012 after they recognised there were limited opportunities for young people with learning disabilities to take a meaningful and active role in society. Lucy and Rachael worked for a youth group for young people up to age 25 with SEN and created opportunities for people to use their abilities, rather than be held back by any disability.
