We have held Festability in the past, to great accolade. However, for the last two years, due to Covid restrictions, we have been unable to go ahead. The pandemic has seen changes to funding priroties and projects with a Covid focus, understandably, get priority. The last two years have been challenging for those who supported us previously and this means many people are not able to help us this year; sadly, some of those organisations and stalls haven’t survived the economic downturn. For many people with disabilities or special educational needs, the last two years has brought isolation, anxiety and for some a step backwards in their mental health. For those reasons, we want to make Festability 2022, which is happening on 18th June 2022, something very special. We want to bring everyone together, in a safe accessible way, to just have fun, meet friends and to dance like no one is watching. We need your help to do this.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
Previous guests have said: “A blend of a unique & special feeling like a mainstream festival but inclusive. The uncountable laughing faces said so much more than I ever could” “It was amazing seeing everyone so happy and relaxed, being able to just enjoy themselves and carers not having to worry too much” “One of our ladies kept saying ‘I’m happy’ and another one was ecstatic that she could walk around the field and stalls completely independently.” “We had an incredible day and stayed until the very end! What an amazing atmosphere, and thank you to everyone involved. You made dreams come true.”
