ND Stay and Play
About the project
The charity runs a monthly stay and play session for children aged 11 and under living with neurodiversity to play with a range of sensory toys. We can accommodate 15 children per session. The sessions allow children to be themselves in a non-judgemental environment and parents to relax and network with other parents.
The charity has also secured a grant to run 14 dance sessions for children aged under 11 years of age who live with neurodiversity.
Take a look at our Events page for details of upcoming Neurodiversity events.
