No Holds Barred Differently Abled Circus Project

No Holds Barred is run by people with disabilities or from a marginalised group. The aim is to build each other up and change the way things are done, by linking together people with disabilities, marginalised groups, collaborators and anyone wishing to make a difference. As a baseline No Holds Barred is trying to make activities and communities physically, emotionally and practically accessible. From this point hoping that systems will be created that many people will feel they are able to make a difference to themselves and those around them. It is not a static group so people can begin to create the things that they dream of and creating new dreams together. Also see our facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/556282961141743/
