Milestonez Day Opportunities Rockspur CIC

Hi there! We're Milestonez - the young person's service available from Rockspur CIC.

Milestonez provides younger adults aged between 18-30 years with a variety of sessions and community based activities throughout the week all with the ethos of increasing our members independence and community inclusion - providing skills for the future. Here at Milestonez we work with our members to plan and implement activities of their choice to help them meet their goals! We are based in Norton Canes and provide a service to all local surrounding areas such as Cannock, Lichfield, Hednesford, Rugeley and even further afield. As well as all of our fantastic sessions throughout the week, we also offer some additional sessions and activities evenings and weekends and unit holidays throughout the year.

Unlike many services, we are also time focused. From joining us here at Milestonez we believe that it can take around three years to allow someone the time to be able to learn or develop new skills, retain what that they have learnt as well as the ability to recall skills and reduce dependency on others. Doing so can help increase independence and lead our young people on to future success such as gaining voluntary/paid employment, moving on from home, becoming more confident, increasing communication
