Corby Steel Gateway is a social group for adults with learning disabilities. There are many activities which take place and the group meets weekly.
Corby Stroke Association
Hi we are a social group led by Stroke survivors & family members, offering support & social inclusion for Stroke survivors, family members & carers. We are a small friendly group, but hoping to increase in numbers in due time to offer support to those who need help to regain lost lives due to the effects of Stroke . We meet at above venue every 2nd Friday between 10-30 – 12.30. We meet for a chat & a cuppa, listen to talks/film show (usually holiday snaps) sometimes have art & craft sessions & we occasionally have visiting speakers on various topics
The most important aspect which we believe is that of interaction with other survivors, to help take away the isolation & the feeling of why ME & that of being alone. We are governed & well, supported by national Stroke Association who are only a phone call away to help with any query, training as needed comes via head office & computer based courses. We are always open to those who are looking for a volunteer role, locally & nationally
Please call on above number for more information

Home start, Corby
Home-Start Corby is based at the Pen Green Children's Centre in Corby. We offer support, friendship and practical help to families in and around the Corby area. We signpost children and their families to a wide array of services and agencies across the town and offer practical assistance to access these. Our volunteers all have parenting experience and visit families in their own homes for 2-3 hours per week.
Every child is entitled to a safe, happy, secure childhood. At Home-Start Corby we believe parents know their children best and we will work together with families to ensure that their children are given a good start in life and are able to achieve their full potential. Our volunteers are highly skilled and receive regular ongoing training and supervision. This enables them to work with families in a way that feels safe. Volunteers are also parents themselves so are no strangers to the complex feelings stirred up in parents during parenting.This knowledge of parenting is fundamental to the ethos of Home-Start. Everybody finds it hard to cope at times for all sorts of reasons, from illness, bereavement, post-natal illness or loneliness. Our volunteers are able to engage with families in a way that builds on their resilience and what is already working well for them.
