Join them at their open day to celebrate the completion of their new outdoor play area and sensory garden which they have undertaken thanks to the generosity of the Charities Aid Foundation CAF Tourle Foundation Fund, who awarded them a grant of £3,000 in June 2018 to help them deliver the sensory garden and play area.

    • Sensory Den with lights;
    • toys and therapy aids LEGO Therapy;
    • Play-dough Therapy;
    • Scooter Boards and Therapy balls;
