ABOUT US

Connect IoW is a local charity providing high quality respite and bespoke support services for adults and children with additional needs on the Isle of Wight

​

Founded in Jenny's living room in 2014, we started off as a Community Interest Company and then converted to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation in 2025. We have grown from offering just a Saturday morning sensory playgroup to a comprehensive set of services delivering person-centred respite and daily support in the community. Our focus from then to now has not changed - we are committed to responding to the needs of the community we were created for, and providing tailored support and care to empower the individuals we work with

​

We provide a variety of services including 1:1 support, youth clubs, day sessions, group outings and much more
