Celebrating 70 years of
Diverse Abilities
Diverse Abilities is Dorset’s hidden gem.
The charity was founded 70 years ago, in 1955, and every year since the charity has strived to make every day better for people with physical and learning disabilities.
This year we are honouring our past, celebrating our present, and looking forward to another 70 years.
To celebrate this special anniversary, we want to collate 70 years of memories from Diverse Abilities; from families who have been supported by the charity, employees from across the decades, volunteers, and people who have fundraised or donated.
Thank you for being our memory makers.
Earlier this year we asked for your memories of the charity to be compiled as part of a display at our Reunion Tea Party and a selection of these were also published in the Bournemouth Echo.
