Yatton House Society  >  About Us

Yatton House Society

Yatton House was started in 1981 after parents and carers had concerns that after statutory education there were no facilities available locally in the form of day care for people with a disability. After many meetings with Social Services Yatton House was born providing follow on support for school leavers. The Centre has evolved over the years to help develop learning opportunities for individuals with Learning/Physical Disabilities who live in the North Yorkshire and Teesside areas.
