When and Where?
Fairfield PHAB is open on Tuesday's 6pm to 8pm at The Ark, Lockerby Road, L7. Please do check the

Why not join us on Facebook?
If you're on Facebook then why not join the Fairfield PHAB group, it's another great way of keeping in touch!
The philosophy of Fairfield PHAB is to offer an exciting program geared to
the age, interest, and ability of our members. This involves learning new skills; making new friends; and participating in
the activities that we undertake. .
Fairfield PHAB is an inclusive youth group, where both non-disabled and disabled children and young people
aged between 8 and 18 can come together on equal terms.
The History of Fairfield PHAB
During the late 80's and early 90's and under the leadership of Alice McMurray, Fairfield PHAB enjoyed a
very successful era. During the mid 90's the Fairfield PHAB closed down. In 2005, whilst working at St John's Community
Centre, the former meeting place for Fairfield PHAB, ex-member Phil Peel was asked to re-establish PHAB within the Kensington
and Fairfield area of Liverpool, and in January 2006 the new St John's PHAB opened it's doors for the very first time, under
the leadership of Phil Peel.
In 2007, it was announced that St John's Community Centre would be closing down, this provided a dilemma
for the PHAB team and it was decided that PHAB would remain open, but we would revert back to the original name of Fairfield
PHAB. After 6 long months from December 2007 - June 2008, PHAB would not run any sessions and would basically cease
to exist. Eventually in July 2008, all the hard work had paid off, we found new premises and we managed to keep the
same PHAB team in place.
