Short Breaks
January 2021: Short Breaks activities
Join us on Zoom each weekend this month for a jam-packed itinerary of fun and exciting activities!
The events are hosted on Zoom every Saturday from 10am-12pm, and then again on Sunday from 1pm-3pm for those who missed it.
You can attend our Saturday or Sunday afternoon sessions. We encourage children to attend every week to explore the different themed activities!
Our regular activity clubs give disabled children and young people an opportunity to explore their interests, talents and develop vital life skills.
Together we plan a range of fun and challenging learning activities that meet individual needs, build future hopes and aspirations and provide children with the confidence to achieve their full potential.
