Why the community needs usThe area of additional needs in children is vast and resource is very much limited in the local area. Our methodology is to support the family end to end with physical and emotional support, we can also provide SEN, grant and benefit advice. We have seen a number of our members go on to become volunteers for us, provide peer support and help give back to the community. We provide weekly sessions incorporating a dedicated sensory room, sensory needs, interactive media, sports and support network.
Our impact on the communityWe support over 500 children and their families with autism, learning difficulties and disabilities in the surrounding area. In the last 12 months we have seen our membership increase over 190% and our weekly session attendances raise by over 125%. In addition to this we have been able to provide over 900 places on our events to the leading local and UK attractions. We have utilised technology and interactive play as much as possible for growth, child development, training and sensory needs.
