Rob decided to brave the soggy weather and took a visit to Roundhay Park. He showed Nick a new area of the Park called the Specialist Gardens, and afterwards they warmed up in the café with a cuppa. We're sure the plants are loving this rain!

Kidneys are often referred to as 'the silent organ' because we don't normally think about them much, but it is very important to keep our kidneys in good health. Read our guide to kidney health here:

Joe had a walk around Yeadon Tarn with Chris and Jason where they saw some swans and geese resting on the waterside. Thankfully, they made it back to Mabgate before the downpour, for a lunch of homemade sausage and chips

Ben and Paris had some daft fun exploring Leeds last week. They tried on some silly costumes at a fancy dress shop, smelled the different soaps in LUSH UK and serenaded (ahem) the crowds at Leeds Markets

Christopher and Vicky took a stroll on the canal where they met some friendly ducks paddling in the water and enjoying the wet weather. Afterwards, Christopher got a cappuccino from Costa Coffee to warm himself up

Our guys have been improving their outdoor skills during our latest Scout Day. They created natural keyrings, pitched a tent, and toasted some marshmallows over the fire. #ThankYou to Nick & Ben, our Resident Scout Leaders!

Autistic friendships don't always look the same as other friendships, but that doesn't make them any less important. Joseph and Marcus have been friends for years, and recently met up at our New Mabgate base to enjoy a spot of ribbon flying #AutismAcceptanceWeek #Friendship

Happy #FeelgoodFriday followers! We think this photo of Ben trying out a new look on a recent visit to the fancy dress shop in Leeds, is just the ticket to get us smiling into the weekend. Cheers big ears! 😆

Amber had a fun filled day with Sarah, despite the wet weather. They created some aqua bead animals, found a crafty way to create Amber's name, sorted different shapes, and chilled out in the sensory room with a foot spa

Oliver wasn't going to let the rain spoil his day out in Wakefield. During the visit he and Paris looked around the charity shops and town centre before stopping for lunch at The Six Chimneys. Looks like you had a wonderful time!

James has been burning off some excess energy on the inflatable assault course and trampolines at Gravity Active Entertainment where he visited with NIck. They finished off the day with more leisurely walk on the canal.
