Barratt London has donated £1,500 to Brighter Horizons, an independent southeast London charity supporting neurodivergent adults and people with learning disabilities, through personal and social development.
Brighter Horizons provides an inclusive and accessible environment for adults seeking long-term support and positive social connection. Its wide-ranging services include physical and emotional wellbeing sessions, life skills training, and community-based activities, all designed to build confidence and independence.

The funding will support one of the charity’s yoga groups for six months, ensuring adults with cerebral palsy and other musculoskeletal conditions can access sessions that help improve strength, mobility and muscle maintenance. The classes also offer emotional regulation benefits for people who can experience sensory overload.
