Accuro

Fun, friendship and belonging for all


Accuro is a small vibrant charity that has been delivering a wide range of services to children, young people and adults with a disability and additional needs throughout West Essex for over 40 years.

We create fun and inclusive activities for people with disabilities, helping them build friendships, grow in confidence, and live more independent lives while giving their families and carers time to recharge.

Accuro can be life changing for individuals and families.

"Knowing she's safe, comfortable and happy is huge. Accuro gives Jaime something that's hers, without me." Louise, Accuro parent.

We are proud to create an environment where our members can build friendships, grow in confidence, and thrive whilst parents take a break. Read some comments we received in our 2026 stakeholder survey and understand the difference Accuro makes: Listening and Learning at Accuro
