Dating And Friendship Agency

Dating and friendship agency

In December people completed a questionnaire to see if they would want a dating agency for people with learning disabilities. 230 questionnaires were sent out and 60 people completed and returned them. Some of the things they said were:

• Most people wanted a dating agency.
• Most people wanted to meet other people either in a small group or on their own.
• Most people had support they could use to access the dating agency.

What Will Happen Now?
There is a need in Leeds for a dating agency for people with learning disabilities. Now, a small group of people from HFT, People in Action and MESMAC will meet to see if they can make this happen. One idea is to set up a dating agency that is managed by people with learning disabilities.
