What is Connect & who is it for?
Connect is a service for adults between the ages of 16-65,
who are living in Midlothian and who have a
physical disability.

What does it do?
We provide people with information and help in planning and
accessing activities. These activities could include further
education, volunteering or leisure activities.

How does it work?
A member of the connect team will meet with you, discuss
what interests are and provide you with information.
We can support you to make choices and give you assistance
to go along to the activity you are interested in.

How much does it cost?
The service is funded by midlothian council and
provided by the thistle foundation.

There is no charge for using Connect although you incur
travel and admission costs forthe activity that you
wish to attend.
