Disability Resource Centre

I visited here as I went along to see my film crew from the Renfrewshire Witch Hunt 1697 project I was involved with back in June.
My crew were two lovely elderly men who enjoy filming and photography and are both members of the centre. I was invited along to collect the footage and the photographs from the day as I’m going to add it in to my main edit of the day.
I found the place no problem at all, it’s set in a lovely bit of ground and surrounded with trees and gardens. I was so warmly greeted and asked to sign in, it just had such a great vibe to the place. It’s very open with lots of hussle and bussle and I waited in the infomation area where a communal computer was available.
I was greeted by the lady I had an appointment with and I met up with my favourite film crew. I was guided into a large hall which doubles up for lunch and various activities. I joined them for lunch which was nice.
The Disability Resource Centre is part of Renfrewshire Council’s Independent Living Services Team. By promoting rehabilitation and enablement projects, they support people to live independently in the community. They provide a range of services to residents with a physical or sensory impairment aged 16 – 65 years.
It’s a great place, which does good work and you can tell it supports its users. Everyone that came in was very much welcomed and I wouldn’t hesitate to go back.
