01550 760400Festive Appeal 2025
This Christmas we’re raising money to bring music to our residents and learners to provide experiences that will fill hearts and hallways with the sound of music!
We’ve got a £5,000 target and any donation is gratefully received.
This is Martyn and he loves music. He doesn’t easily communicate, and music really does something for him.
This is why Martyn is ‘the face’ of our 2025 festive appeal.
Lives Full of Meaning & Purpose
We are devoted to the people in our care, every contribution is valued – learners, residents, volunteers and staff all benefit hugely from our culture of community living. Our work is grounded by principles of inclusion, mutual respect and increasing the life chances of people with autism, learning difficulties and disabilities.
At our Rhandirmwyn site, we run a specialist residential further education college, Coleg Elidyr and a community residency programme, Inclusive Lives. Offsite we offer long term residential living at Victoria House and Garnllwyd Barns.
Accommodation & Facilities
We have lots of great facilities including a small holding, gym, shop and weavery. Our houses are run as warm, supportive households where people can be themselves. We eat, socialise and undertake chores together, sharing experiences and making decisions on household matters such as menu planning and leisure activities.
Sector Leading Provision
Coleg Elidyr was awarded ‘excellent’ in all areas in 2025. Our education provision was also awarded 'Excellent' in all areas in our 2019 Estyn inspection. In 2020 we were proud winners of a Natspec Award in the student voice category. We have been awarded 'Advanced Accreditation' status by the National Autistic Society for our exceptional approach working with young people who have autism.
