Our aim is to support our students to build their own futures by nurturing their own autonomy and providing opportunities for our students to challenge themselves.
Woking
In the UK only 5% of people with learning disabilities are in paid employment compared to 76% of the rest of the population, at Dramatize we would like to change this.
Inspiration Brewed from Compassion
Dramatize began as a dream in 2011—a dream to create a space where creativity meets care, where every individual is celebrated for their unique abilities. Inspired by the need for inclusive activities in the Spelthorne area, we embarked on a journey that brought to life not just a day service, but a haven for personal development through the arts.

This was my first visit to meet a friend of mine, and I’m so glad she suggested coming here. The entire team are absolutely brilliant and deserve medals, as their customer interaction and service is outstanding. Food is brilliant and whilst my waistline would not agree, the cakes they serve are amazing.

Fantastic community hub... Enabling adults with learning disabilities to get out in the work place and gain experience. Why would you visit this place when the cakes, coffee, sandwiches and jacket potatoes are so so good
