A creative club for neurodivergent families
Designed for families with Neurodiverent Children aged 7-11 (younger and older siblings welcome).
The club provides a friendly environment where families can explore different art forms, boost their confidence and enjoy quality time together.
Families have expressed how welcoming, accepting and supportive our sessions are and the space we host them in. There is comfortable seating, different sizes of tables and chairs or cushions, rugs and mats that can be used.
You may be awaiting a diagnosis, find that other spaces don’t suit or want a different and more flexible approach. You don’t have to prove or justify anything to us, if our space and approach looks or sounds like a good fit, then it might be worth a go.
All sessions are free and take place at The Old School in Warrington.
These sessions were originally developed with support from Cheshire Community Foundation and have now been expanded with the support of The National Lottery Community Fund.
What We Do:
- Create worlds and stories together
- Use recycled materials and craft tools to make pictures, puppets and objects to tell stories with
- Work together or alongside each other as a family
- Feel accepted and celebrated for working in a way you enjoy working, without pressure of set targets
- Enjoy being creative with family members while meeting new people too.
