Severe learning disability support

As one of the most well-established learning disability charities in Greater Manchester, Seashell offers a holistic approach to learning, which we tailor to meet the needs of each individual child or young adult we support. We enable students to learn how to express themselves and engage with the world around them. We also help them learn how to become more independent and live safe, creative and fulfilling lives. We do this through the unrivalled expertise of our specialist teachers, care staff, onsite therapy and nursing teams, assistive technologists and sports coaches, who each provide outstanding severe learning disability support.

Fundraise for Seashell

As a charity, we rely on fundraising to provide vital specialist equipment and experiences to enhance the development, growth and potential of the young people we support.
