Our members had a cracking day out at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum as part of our Oot & Aboot series! ✨

Oot & Aboot is all about getting out and enjoying cultural events and attractions around the city β€” and we picked the perfect time to visit, with the Barbie exhibition adding a little extra glamour! πŸ’•βœ¨

🎬 We loved the Salvador Dalí movie
🐝 Checked out the beehive
🎨 Explored everything Kelvingrove has to offer
β˜• And, of course, finished the day with a coffee and a treat at Lily & Rose!

A brilliant day of friendship, culture and plenty of fun. ❀️

Our 2026 Love Without Limits Conference is coming up in September!

The conference takes place in Aberdeen but you are all welcome to travel up and join us for a wonderful day of breaking down barriers for adults with learning disabilities.

At the conference, Tony and Donna-Marie will be giving everyone an insight into our Love and S*x workshops.

People often tell us they have not had enough information, advice or support about relationships. This is a good opportunity to find out more about what the workshops cover and how we make it fun as well as educational!

Want to join us? We will be at Aberdeen Beach Ballroom on Thursday 10th September. Everyone welcome! Book your free tickets now:
