Jigsaw Study Centre
Daytime education, training and recreation activities are
provided at the Jigsaw Study Centre situated close to our
adult residences. Jigsaw provides places for 50 adults each
week. Some live in our residential units and others attend
on day placements from the wider community. Education and
activities are provided within a structured environment and
include life skills, art and craft, computing, PE, textiles,
and woodwork.
All students have the opportunity to take part in the
Award Scheme Development and Accreditation Network (ASDAN).
Service users also access Further Education Colleges in the
Colchester area.
Jigsaw Study Centre have produced their own web site -

Norfolk Study Centres
Two small study centres are located in the middle of
Dereham allowing service users to participate in a growing
range of activities. They shop for their lunch, visit the
new library and enjoy the growing café culture and range of
shops of our market town. The centres are an ideal
environment for the development of service users’ daily
living skills.
Service Users can access Internet and e-mail. One service
user now uses e-mail to correspond with his father and there
has been steady improvement in writing skills, with several
service users corresponding regularly with parents and
friends. One of the centres has recently been refitted with
a new kitchen and is mainly used for cooking.
