Our Facilities
Our amazing, secure outdoor space!
Our outdoor area is what makes us unique. Many of the people who attend our sessions do not have the opportunity to run off and explore whilst out in the community. We have more than an acre of safe, secure outdoor space for you to explore which includes a huge variety of exciting play equipment, a woodland walk, grassed areas for sport, paths for riding bikes and trikes, as well as quieter spaces where you can relax and be amongst nature. Parents have told us that it is the only place where they can sit and watch their child playing from a distance and we have seen many children and young people grow in confidence and become more independent as they have the opportunity to explore freely.
Indoor Space
There is lots of space inside our premises. Aside from our soft play area, we have a large multi-purpose room that can be set up according to the needs of the group. This room can be used as a traditional playroom (we have lots and lots of toys and games!), can be set up with tables and chairs for learning or for playing board games and doing jigsaws, is transformed each month into a dance hall for our discos and can be used for birthday parties….and much more! We have a separate area that can be used for art and craft activities or can be set up with tables and chairs as a dining area.
Soft Play Area
Our fabulous soft play area provides lots of fun for children and adults alike. The ground level is fully accessible for wheelchair users and our ball pool is designed so that people can access it using a hoist, if required. On the ground level, you can experience the thrill of our ‘wind blower’, send a ball whizzing through a tube back into our ball pool or simply relax in the quieter sensory corner. On the upper level there is lots to explore with a rope bridge, tunnels to crawl through and two different slides to choose from!
Kitchen
A large kitchen, where visitors can make themselves a drink at our Family Sessions. Groups hiring the premises can also make use of our kitchen facilities.
Accessible toilet facilities
We have an accessible bathroom area which includes a ceiling tracking hoist, an adjustable-height portable changing/ shower bed, shower, and toilet and sink with hand rails. We also have a portable hoist should you need to use this.
Please consider making a donation. Your donation could help to fund a specialist provider such as the ‘The Animal Man’ to attend our sessions.
As a charity we receive no government funding and we rely on the kind support of our community to keep our charity open for the hundreds of families that visit us each year. Without this support, many parents have told us that they would struggle to find a safe, secure and understanding place for their child to play.
