Forward King's Lynn Forward is a local registered charity and company limited by guarantee supporting approximately 120 people (members) with learning disabilitities.

Forward is an independent, local registered charity and company limited by guarantee supporting approximately 120 people (members) with learning disabilities and challenging behaviours, in King’s Lynn and West Norfolk. We were established in 1982 by a group of parents who wanted to provide outings for their disabled adult children and have grown from these small roots. We now have 42 members of staff, 8 volunteers and 6 trustees. Our aim is for everybody to progress, be included in their local community and engage in meaningful activities of their choice. Our programmes include sensory integration, health and fitness, communication, horticulture, hobbies, advocacy, independent living skills and supporting people towards employment. We have an Enterprise Zone which is dedicated to supporting members to develop work skills. Activities include a t-shirt printing project, making jewellery, candles, cards and wood products. We feel we offer a unique service in Norfolk.
