​Gig Buddies Portsmouth

Gig Buddies Portsmouth is a project apart of the Aldingbourne Trust which is a free scheme funded by the Portsmouth City Council to match a volunteer and adult with a learning disability and / or autism in Portsmouth. Our coordinator Mike Harris supports and facilitates friendships within the community and enables people to have fun, socialise and access many community events together.

Are you looking for a Buddy?
​

If you are someone who has a learning disability and / or autism and is interested in being matched with a buddy to enable you to access events in the community we would love to hear from you. Our aim is to match you with someone who has similar interests so a natural friendship can form.

Whilst you are waiting to be matched you are welcome to join in with the regular group socials that are organised every month.
I'm looking for a Buddy!
Volunteer as a Gig Buddy!
​

​
You don’t need to have any particular experience to become a Gig Buddy.  

All we ask is you are able to commit to meeting up with your buddy once a month; be friendly, kind and have a good sense of humour. We ask you to be committed to supporting adults with learning disabilities and / or autism to live active social lives and make their own choices about how they wish to live.
Become a Gig Buddy!
