Pushing Boundaries
Welcome to Paradigm
Boundless in energy and aspiration, Paradigm is a development and training organisation with a passion for supporting people with a learning disability and/or autism to live lives THEY choose.
The success of our work is based on our commitment to co-facilitation and ability to bring people together to imagine what more is possible and plan action. We help dust off the cobwebs, re-energise tired thinking and banish any institutionalised thinking and behaviour. We are all about making human rights real and freeing people to live good ordinary lives.
Why not look at the Reach Standards, the Gr8 Support Movement, our training offer, the visceral report ‘Don’t Ever Call Us Unskilled Again’ (see below) and our powerful ‘Living Life’ short films (see on the right here) launched in June 2021!

‘Living Life.’ is a series of short films where people with a learning disability and/or autism talk about how they live life.
