Enrichment Activities

Show all activities
Although we are a non-educational centre, we offer skills-focused sessions. These support you to learn new skills while having fun at the same time!

Cooking sessions
Cook up a storm using a range of accessible kitchen equipment and switches. You’ll participate fully in the whole cooking process – from measuring, preparing and selecting ingredients, to cooking and discovering the excitement that food can bring. Afterwards, take your finished goodies home to share and enjoy with your family or friends.
Assistive technology
Join our exciting assistive technology gaming sessions, or develop your Eye Gaze or switch skills to operate a range of devices independently. A whole new, exciting world awaits!
Patchwork Farm
Get outdoors in nature and help out on Patchwork Farm. You can help feed and groom the donkeys, or guinea pigs, or help to clean the animal enclosures.
