A Message From The Founder

My name is Patrick Christie, and I created LPC to build more than just a service business.

I am currently setting up LPC step by step, with the goal of creating a space where people — including those with disabilities or barriers to work — can still take part, learn, and contribute in meaningful ways.

I believe that having a disability or facing challenges should not stop anyone from being involved in work, creativity, or community.

That’s why LPC is being designed to be:

• Inclusive
• Supportive
• Flexible
• Opportunity-focused

What LPC Stands For

We believe:

• Everyone deserves the chance to work and learn
• People with disabilities should have equal access to opportunities
• Young people should be supported into real pathways
• Skills should be practical and accessible
• Community and teamwork can change lives

What We Are Building

LPC is being developed to provide:

• PA System Hire & Event Services
• Photo Booth Experiences
• Workshops & Training Programmes
• Real Work Opportunities through events

This means people won’t just learn — they can progress into real roles and paid opportunities over time.

Our Community Focus (CIC Purpose)

As a Community Interest Company, everything we do is focused on community benefit.

We aim to:

• Support people with disabilities into active roles
• Help young people gain confidence and experience
• Provide safe, inclusive environments to learn and grow
• Reduce isolation through teamwork and creative activity
• Create pathways into employment and self-employment

Our Vision

Although LPC is still being set up, the long-term vision is to create a fully accessible creative space in Sheffield where people can:

• Learn music, media, and event skills
• Take part in workshops and training
• Work on real events
• Build confidence and independence

Final Statement

LPC is about opportunity for everyone — regardless of background, ability, or experience.
