What’s it about?
It’s fun, social, outdoor activities for families who have children with additional needs. Weekly accessible and non-judgmental sessions to build skills and learn through play which also provide a break and a support network for parents/carers to gain advice from other parent/carers. Activities are created to be suitable and inclusive to all ages, abilities and disabilities, including calming activities, sensory elements for stimulation, learning around nature and physical activities. Activities are in the outdoor environment and include growing, cooking, bush-craft and nature crafts. Sprout also includes a young mentor project.
Who’s it for?
Any family who feels they need extra support, siblings are just as much a part of Sprout as are extended or non-traditional families.
When?
Saturdays 11am-1pm.
Where?
Adventure playground area, Crow Nest Park, Dewsbury. Running at the same time on 6 October – 27 October at Beaumont Park, Huddersfield and then from 10 November at Almondbury Community School, Fernside Avenue, HD5 8PQ.
