HUB

We are looking for a new home!

Oak Lodge Skills Hub is embarking on a new chapter and actively searching for a new home in High Wycombe town centre. Please share any information or suggestions you may have to help us find a suitable space in High Wycombe so we can continue empowering individuals through independent living.

What is Oak Lodge?

Oak Lodge is a skills hub for adults with diverse disabilities supporting social and emotional development. We are client led and full of a range of activities to encourage our clients to maintain their level of existing skills and learn new ones. Promoting independence is at the forefront of what we do, supporting each client individually so they feel empowered to live the life they want, as independently as possible.

Let us help support the transition from leaving education to thriving in the real world. Whether that is supporting people to live independently, helping people with complex needs live a content life or providing meaningful and fun activities, we will work towards each personal goal.

Where is Oak Lodge?

Oak Lodge skills hub is based in The Chilterns Centre in High Wycombe. We are very accessible for our clients and offer them the opportunity to enjoy a wider range of activities. As we are central, we are able to go on meaningful trips into the community, supporting our clients to practice life skills as well as social skills. For example, going to the local shop or park.

We are very proud to say that all of our current clients have been a part of the development of our hub, sharing their ideas to help build a space they will love and enjoy.
