Support for children with additional needs

The Sensory Room

Our Sensory Room is a safe and calm space for children up to the age of 11. The room is equipped to provide either gentle stimulation or relaxation through touch, sound, smell and a range of visual features.

Sensory rooms are particularly useful for babies and children with sight or hearing problems, or for children with varying degrees of attention deficiency disorders.

Colourful bubble tubes, glitter balls, tactile panels and interactive sound and light panels encourage hand and eye coordination, and the development of social and language skills.

A water bed and projected moving images with sounds and music promote relaxation.

The Sensory Room is open at various times Monday to Friday. £1 per family for a 45 minute session. Bookings can be made by calling 01784 241407

Little Diamonds Group

A smaller group for children with additional needs and the parents and carers who care for them. The sessions offer fun activities, sensory resources; a chance to have a chat with other families and share ideas and experiences.  There will be open access to the Sensory Room, advice, and support available from the Early Support team and visits from other professionals supporting children with additional needs. You do not need to bring your child if you just want to come in and speak to one of the team. Find information and dates of next groups here
