58 Centres
IWA runs 58 community centres which offer training, social activities and therapies to people with physical disabilities.

Irish Wheelchair Association operates community centres with day services, member transport, training, holidays, outings, school leaver activities and outreach programmes through 58 full and part-time community centres around Ireland.

Our community centres are welcoming spaces where friendship, support, and opportunity come together. They are dedicated to enriching the lives of people with physical disabilities. Members can take part in creative workshops, fitness classes, and a range of social activities. Most importantly our centres offer a vital sense of belonging and opportunities to build connections for those who may feel isolated or alone.

We also offer the school leaver program, empowering young adults to gain independence, develop valuable skills, and take meaningful steps toward their future.

We are connecting people online to our services and to each other. We continue to offer formal qualifications such as QQI Certificate courses and our Ability programme, that supports young people to seek employment.

Everything we do is made possible by the incredible generosity of local businesses, clubs, and volunteers. Their support helps us bring joy, friendship, and empowerment to so many. Whether you’re looking to join our community, volunteer your time, or support our mission, you’ll be making a real difference in people’s lives.

With the Irish Wheelchair Association, there’s always something wonderful happening – and there’s always a place for you here.
