Working with Purple Patch is a pleasure. All the staff are kind, they do what they say they will and deliver just what is needed. The knowledge of the staff team helped us to make our project work really well for everyone involved.

The people who attend Purple Patch sessions are helpful and enthusiastic and working with the Skipton group was the highlight of our lithophone project.

I would love to work with Purple Patch again. Our project to build a lithophone (xylophone made of local rock) made the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority much more aware of how to support access to the countryside for people with learning disabilities. We did some really good work and had an enormous amount of fun whilst we did it!

The best bit is seeing a sense of achievement in the participants as they learn, have fun and become more confident and independent.

If I didn’t have a bursary I wouldn’t be able to come, and I’m so glad that I can. It makes me happy to be part of the group.
