We are a not-for-profit training organisation specialising in the area of disability and sex.. We train social services and health care professionals in the private and public sectors, about the sexual health needs of people with disabilities.

We provide guidance, support and signposting of services to disabled people, their partners, carers, about accessing services relating to intimacy and sexuality.  Where appropriate, we can supply an advocacy service.

Founder & CEO Lorraine Stanley, has many years background in training delivery and organisation, within local government and the NHS. Being disabled herself has made her aware of the lack of support for disabled people when it comes to intimacy, and lack of training for health care professionals with how to support these matters.

Co-Founder Michael Ballard, having been a partner carer for over 9 years, has had first-hand experience in the day to day difficulties this role brings; and the frustrations of switching between the roles of carer and lover.
