Profile

KEEN is an organisation that provides activities for young people (4-25+ year olds) with special needs. We run an over 18s social club on a Monday evening, an arts and drama club for under 18s on a Friday afternoon and a sports session for everyone on Saturday afternoons. We also do lots of special events like day trips and holiday activities.
