About BATIAS

BATIAS was set up in 1992 to support people with learning disabilities through the closure of a long-stay hospital in South Ockendon and the client’s transition into smaller homes in the local community. BATIAS has since grown and offers different types of advocacy support. The Charity works with some of society’s most vulnerable people, enabling them to become active citizens, promoting positive social inclusion in the local community and developing the client’s social networks and life opportunities
