Our ambition

To lead the way in creating meaningful communities using a virtual platform to reach a wider range of people, who otherwise may feel very isolated.

Our Story

During the coronavirus pandemic, when organisations had to close their doors, our team at Windward Day Services quickly got to work using their imaginations and compassion to create an online provision for our services users. Our timetable was varied and creative and focused on providing meaningful sessions tailored to everyone’s interests and abilities, whilst also keeping people connected during this challenging time. People began to ask to join our online sessions and so we created a second timetable which we called Friends of Windward. This reached more people who were also isolated in their homes and we had some great feedback from people. During a poem writing challenge, Sebastian shared his thoughts with a poem call “Life was like lockdown anyway”

This gave us the inspiration to continue on with our service that was still a great option for many people who might not be able to access traditional services, or would like to enhance their weekly provision. And so Click was born! Our Zoom timetable continues to provide meaningful sessions with a focus on building social skills, learning new things and creating a community.

What people are saying about Click

“I’m sat here thinking I’m so glad I discovered click. It has been noticed by those who know me well that I’m happier, improved mental health and a massive increase in confidence since joining. I first saw the ad on Facebook and clicked on it as it piqued my interest that it was for autistic adults. Looking on the website was even more interesting.it looked fun so I found the courage to make contact. It took a lot of courage as well but I’m so glad I did. I wasn’t sure if I would be suitable as I don’t have learning difficulties (except specific to maths) but I feel part of something for the first time in my life. I fit in and look forward to sessions.”

“"S and I did the CLICK session on Sunday with Lynne. I just want to say how good it was for S (and me supporting him) – the interaction between Lynne (Live – ly), and the Zoomers was so easy and relevant. The content, so appropriate and I especially liked it for S with the video up close to items e.g. in the sweet shop, looking through the shop windows, saying hello to people and dogs was really great for him as the view in the shop window from a wheelchair isn’t the same as when standing up so he doesn’t have that angle of seeing these things. CLICK gets better and better, so keep up the good work. I am so proud of all that Windward has to offer people with LD in this area and beyond … Well done and grateful thanks."”

“M. is really enjoying the sessions, and I think they are really well thought out, welcoming, accessible and friendly. I'm really pleased we found Click!”

“Click has not only given Jordan something to do, but has gently taken him by the hand and warmly welcomed and embraced him. It has given him a voice & helped him to see his talents which he didn't always see himself. Click has helped Jordan make more friends, laugh out loud, to feel a sense of belonging and built his confidence. ”

“Just want to say YOU ARE DOING A FANTASTIC JOB. My clients and families are singing your praises. WELL DONE TO YOU ALL.”

“Please pass on my thanks to the wonderful click team. B so enjoys his sessions & especially this last week when he was unwell & missed all his college festivities. The team always have such patience, include everyone in the session & the interactions between everyone is lovely to listen to.”

“With all trailblazing there are pitfalls, but I think you have tapped in to a previously unused (certainly in our experience) area of support. It has been a vital part of lockdown for us and could even have been the difference between getting through and not! As an ongoing service, it provides an opportunity for Becca to have people ‘in our home’ when she needs to wind down and not be super stimulated by being outside, whilst still being kept active, whether in mind or body!”
