The Cáirdeas Centre is an adult service whose aim is to support adult presence, participation and contribution in and with the community. The centre provides day services to adults with intellectual disability and autistic spectrum disorders. The services are developed to meet the individual needs of the service user using a person centred approach. With the aim of total inclusion of the person in the community they provide service users with the opportunity to experience ordinary places, work experience, part time work and living independently in the community or to be supported to do so.
