Get Involved

At Keynsham Mencap, we believe that everyone has something valuable to contribute and there are many ways you can get involved and make a real difference. Whether you’re passionate about fundraising, keen to volunteer your time and skills, or simply want to take part in one of our inclusive community events, your support helps us continue to empower people with learning disabilities across Keynsham and the surrounding areas. By joining us, you become part of a welcoming, supportive network that celebrates ability, promotes independence, and builds lasting friendships.

To help you find the best way to get involved, we’ve created three dedicated sections: Fundraising, Volunteering, and Events. Each one offers unique opportunities to support our work and connect with others in the community. Whether you want to raise vital funds, lend a helping hand, or take part in one of our inclusive activities, simply click below to explore how you can make a meaningful impact.

Volunteering Opportunities with Children and Adults with Learning Disabilities

We run 9 weekly clubs year round (plus a gardening club in the summer), 6 for adults and 3 for children. Our clubs are supported by a team of volunteers and we are always looking for more people to get involved. Volunteering with Keynsham and District Mencap Society is great fun and a very rewarding experience.
