Stay up late are a pretty cool organisation who help people with learning disabilities get the most out of life.

We all like to get out and meet our friends, during my formative years I barely had a night in, most of you were probably much the same.

Now, imagine if your nights out had to stop at 9pm because your support worker changes shift then so you have to go home... how different would your life be - would you have the friendships you have now? 

Stay up late are activly working to help young people with extra needs to get to clubs, see bands and lead the full life they need to express themselves.

I've got a vested interest in Stay up late of course, Adam is only 7 now, but by the time he's old enough to go out I'd like to have seen them grow - after all he's gonna be way too cool to want to go out with his Dad ;0)
