Welcome to People First Dorset
What we do
People First Dorset is a user-led charity run by and for people with learning disabilities, with support from the PFD team. We help each other build confidence, make friends, understand our rights, improve our health and wellbeing and have a stronger voice in the decisions that affect our lives.
