ABOUT US: ALL ABILITIES IRELAND

We at All Abilities Ireland are Neurodiversity champions, and as a leading body in the industry, we will nurture and inspire every individual who joins us. We're delighted to have recently won Social Inclusion Organisation of the year for our community work at Laois Community & Voluntary Awards, alongside so many other amazing volunteers supporting marginalised and isolated families in Laois. 
We employ neurodivergent creatives, so our programmes are designed and developed to suit individuals and families managing Autism, Dyspraxia, Dyslexia, ADHD & Anxiety. We provide psycho-social and psycho-educational interventions online to over 9,000 young people every year, developing bespoke mental health programmes for schools and youth groups alike. We connect directly with over 500 families yearly. 
Service Provision
Our specialty is provision of evidence-based transition programmes (NCSE), self-development webinars, creative programmes for children, school sensory training and sensory camps for young and old. 
We offer sensory camps and online programmes to children across Laois, Offaly & Midlands, as we aim to complete a larger nationwide project connecting the counties in 2027. We've worked with Love Actually, Special Needs Charity for Irish-Chinese members, Chime Deaf Support Charity, ADHD Ireland, Dyspraxia Ireland, Rehabcare and Canteen-Kids Cancer Charity, offering reduced-rate or free interventions to support their member families. Corporate family day programmes are one of our specialties, recently offering Parents Sensory Training programmes in National Partnerships. 
Festival & Event Support
We have worked as Disability Support to Kaleidescope Family Festival in Wicklow for the last 5 years also facilitating our own Sensory Family Area there and in Electric Picnic, All Together Now & Forest Fest. 
We'll support LIVE WELL sensory areas in Portlaoise in April & Emotional Regulation Seminars in SETU Carlow & Waterford in 2026.
The BIG NEWS is we're hosting the FIRST Midlands Arts & Neurodiversity Festival in Portlaoise in August this year. Partners welcome to help us make it a success!
Governance
Our organisation is based in Laois, and is a non-profit affiliated to Youth Work Ireland, run by professionals & volunteers. The few funds received are for programme provision only, we ensure that it all goes back to those marginalised and excluded in the community through our psychosocial interventions. Our professional team are insured, garda-vetted and have completed Child Protection training and Children's First programme. Financials are professionally completed yearly.
Collaboration
We're always looking for professional partnerships to expand our programme range. Whether you’re an Artist, Musician, Dance Tutor, OT, Play Therapist, Psychologist, Art/Music Therapist, funders or Community Groups, please get in contact and join us in our Creative Inclusion Network. Together we can grow stronger!
