Hi everyone,

I hope you are all well and had a good week. All of our weekly activities are on this week. Stay & Play is on at its usual time of 2:00-3:30 pm, but no bouncy castle this week. You can book all of our activities online at https://www.playandlearningsupport.co.uk/book-online

Just a wee reminder that our free Carer event is on Thursday this week at Caulders Garden Centre, Cumbernauld at 11am. This time it is a chat and chill in the Cafe with a drink and a cake included.

Our October holidays events will be available to book online from Wednesday at 8.30pm. We have the timetable of events included below.

Laura and I attended the Neurodiversity Show at Hampden on Friday. It was really interesting and informative as it included seminars and exhibitors. We gathered a lot of information to share and made a few connections too. We are hoping it will return next year as that was the first time they had come up to Scotland.

The Pony Therapy is now going into its 4th week and the new block will begin after the October holidays. If you would like your child to attend the next block please let me know and I can send you the referral form.

We hope to see you at our Carers event on Thursday. All are welcome.

Thank you for all your support. Have a great week everyone.

Hi all, happy Friday 😁!
We have some exciting news, our Guardianship event is all organised.
Martin specialises in disability law so it should be very informative.

The event will take place on Thursday 29th October at 9.30am at Broadwood Farm. We will have it in the private area where we have our pizza parties.

This event will be able to book on our website from Monday.
We look forward to seeing you there ☺️xx
