Why was the frog late for work? His car got toad! 🐸 If you like this good/bad joke and are looking for work supporting a young disabled person to have a great life, this post might interest you!

We are helping T and his Mum find a personal assistant to work one-to-one with T for up to six hours a week during term-time and up to 12 hours in school holidays in the Eastern Green area of Coventry.

T's personal assistant needs to be proactive, responsible, understanding and help him with all of the activities he enjoys - including visiting museums, going swimming, playing Xbox, building lego, going on walks using a wheelchair and telling terrible jokes!

This funny, fun loving 13-year-old is looking for someone who can relate to him in a light-hearted, playful way but also support him with the practicalities of life (including road safety), creating opportunities for positive friendships and greater independence.

Having access to a car for trips out is preferable, but not essential.

Contact Avril Draper for further information, including the hourly rate of pay, at [email protected] 📧

Please note this is a contract between T's family and the personal assistant, not Grapevine.

Please share if you know someone who could be great for T ♻

Museum of Me are branching out and want to reach more people by launching a digital museum. They approached the brilliantly creative young people at Teenvine to help them develop this idea. Nine young people from Teenvine were nominated as museum stars and MoM and Teenvine worked together to produce an exhibit for each star. Along the way Teenvine learned about storytelling, curation, production and marketing. On 1st July the Teenvine Museum of Me opened! We held our exhibition at Art Riot Collective and were joined by friends and family who were invited to dive in to the storytelling, looking, reading and listening to our young people and their exhibits (a couple of exhibits also needed to be tasted!). The digital museum will be available on museumofme.co.uk in the next couple of days.

Museum stars: Caitlin, Harley, Harry, Emese, Philip, Jonathan, Scarlett, Jessica, Karol

Soooo excited to be a part of the Where We Belong celebration!

Imagineer Productions invited Teenvine to participate in lantern making sessions for the celebration.

Our designs reflect our thoughts and feelings about belonging.

If you are attending the celebration on 20th March at Coventry Canal Basin please look out for our designs and tag us in any you spot on the canal!

We have bats, beds, headphones, pets, and logos for you to look out for!

Also at the sessions we were lucky enough to spend time with Coventry's Poet Laureate Andrea Mbarushimana who collected our words on belonging and created 2 beautiful poems from them. Our young people were given the opportunity to record these poems to be played to at the celebration next week, so please listen out for this!

Thank you to everyone at Imagineer Productions for connecting and including us in this event ❤️

This week Teenvine were invited to spend some time at the fabulous Charterhouse in Coventry! We spent our time making birdboxes, seedbombs and searching for creatures and lichen by torchlight! We ran the session alongside Warwickshire Wildlife Trust and the National Trust as part of Green for All funded by National Lottery Heritage fund and Nature Towns and Cities.

Our young perople got to practice valuable life skills like tool use, exploration of a beautiful green space which they can return to in future with their families and will be giving back to nature through the seed bombs they made.

This session was a real co-production led by the ideas and wishes of our young people who had lots of ideas about how they could spend their time outdoors. HUGE thanks to Ari from Grapevine who is our Green For All champion, Jenn and Faye form WWT and Niamh from Charterhouse for listening to our young people and creating connections and opportunities.

Our partners from the National Trust on this venture said:

"We’re thrilled to be part of Green for All. Making sure the Charterhouse is part of the Coventry community is really important to us, and it’s fantastic to see the green space around us being used in this way”

- We're thrilled too and look forward to coming back!

Watch this space for more creativity and fun!

Rishard starts his walk from Rugby to Coventry

24/09/2025

Happening Tomorrow!!!

Rishard will walk from Rugby to Coventry to raise awareness about health barriers for people with a learning disability. These health barriers mean people with a learning disability are dying nearly 20 years earlier than everyone else, often of illnesses that can be treated or prevented. If this shocks you, join us at the finish line to welcome Rishard at the Canal Basin 4:30pm.
