Gig Buddies Gloucestershire provides adults with learning disabilities the opportunity to see live music in their area, through the recruitment of volunteers.

We recruit volunteers who love live music and match them with adults with learning disabilities who also love music, but might not have ever had the opportunity to go to a gig.


We match people up based on their personalities, music tastes and locations. Many venues around Gloucestershire have shown support by offering tickets.


Gig Buddies Gloucestershire is a franchise run by Building Circles. Building Circles covers the costs of expenses and a DBS check.

About Gig Buddies

Gig Buddies gives adults with learning disabilities and those on the autistic spectrum the opportunity to stay out late in the evenings to enjoy live music.

We match people based on shared music tastes, locations and personalities. We are currently looking to recruit more volunteers across Gloucestershire to share their love of live music with a socially isolated adult with a learning disability.
