We are a voluntary organisation funded by grants from Charities, Arts Organisations and local businesses to provide theatre activities for learning disabled members of the community.

Since 1998 no script has been shied away from and over the years our confident group have embraced the darkness of Hamlet, the storms of The Tempest and the turmoil of Lord of the Flies.

Derived from the John Betjeman poem ‘Slough’,‘Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Slough’, the friendly members of the company are friends and our productions are powerful bombs, exploding myths and preconceptions of what people with learning disabilities are capable of.

The core aim of Friendly Bombs is to provide local learning disabled people with a true sense of theatre.
