We help people plan to reach their goals, build social connections, and stay safe with our Circles of support model.
Our community is here to support people with a learning disability and autism to live an equal life to their peers and assure their loved ones of a safe and fulfilled future. We welcome anyone who would like to contribute to our goals and those of the people we support.
Equal Futures’ aim is to help people with a learning disability and autism and their families to plan for the future to ensure that they live a good and equal life.
We wanted to create a brand that reflects this aim but doesn’t describe what we do, nor label those supported by us.
Our logo is inspired by a story from one of the first people Equal Futures supported, Lindsay:
Lindsay was born with a condition in her skull and later caught a disease, both leading to a learning disability. She also has a physical disability, for which she uses a wheelchair and a walker.
In amongst the many exciting activities Lindsay does as she lives a very full life, one day Lindsay pointed to something in the sky and told her family that she was going to be “in there one day”. It turned out what she was pointing to was a glider plane.
Sure enough, Lindsay’s prediction was right – today she has done more than 130 flights in a glider plane, including some tricks like loop-de-loops that initially scared her parents!
Lindsay’s achieved many things, including her goals to fly, with support from Equal Futures’ Circle of Support model.
Her story is a testament to what we can achieve together.
We are proud to represent her story, and many others like hers, with our logo.
