Background
First Focus is a very well respected up and coming charity situated in the ancient market town of Fakenham in North Norfolk. We have been operating since 2002 and during our first year we had 350 people use our facilities, opening only one session a week (10 am to 2 pm). We eventually opened two sessions a week and now our numbers have increased to over 3,900 a year.
We were set up initially to assist people who suffer disabilities/illnesses of varying degrees, their families and carers, within Fakenham and the surrounding areas. This will enable them to easily access the necessary information they needed under one roof, which has helped to make their lives less stressful and to give them the feeling of well-being, knowing that they are not on their own.
