We recently enjoyed a fantastic day out at the National Trust’s Brockhampton Estate for their magical Festival of Blossom! ☀️🎒

Our clients loved exploring the estate and immersing themselves in the beauty of the blossom filled orchards. It was a beautiful, sensory-rich way to encourage everyone to take a mindful moment in nature.

We also loved meeting so many lovely members of the public during our walk around the grounds.

🍗 Sign of the Week: CHICKEN 🍗

We are kicking off a brand new sign of the week theme! Over the next few weeks, we will be exploring words all about food 🍽️

First up: chicken!

Food is a massive part of our daily routines and a huge source of enjoyment at Myriad. By learning signs for different ingredients and meals, we give the people we support a powerful way to express their preferences, make independent choices at mealtimes and actively engage in conversation around the dinner table.

Watch this week’s video and learn the sign for chicken with us! 🤟✨

There was plenty of messy fun at The Myriad Centre recently as our clients took part in a handprint stamping activity! 🌈

For our clients, the process of art is often just as important as the final result. This session provided a wonderful sensory experience:

🎨 The cold, tactile feel of the paint.
✋ The physical pressure of stamping.
👀 The visual joy of seeing bright shapes appear.

These "This Is Me" masterpieces are now brightening up our walls and reminding us of the amazing individuals we support 💙

👓 Sign of the Week: GLASSES 👓

Our Self-Care Life Skills series continues! This week, we are learning the sign for glasses.

For many of the people we support, putting on their glasses is one of the first steps in their morning routine. Learning this sign helps our clients identify a vital personal item that helps them navigate and see the world more clearly. It’s all about building that vocabulary for the things that matter most in their daily lives! ✨

What does communication look like at Myriad? 🗣️🗨️

It’s more than just speech! For our clients, communication is a beautiful mix of:

✅ Formal Tools: Makaton signs and Picture Exchange Systems.

✅ Natural Cues: Gestures, eye contact and vocal noises.

Why do we use so many different styles?

Because everyone deserves to be understood. Whether it’s a specific sound for "yes" or a PECS card for "snack," these tools provide the foundation for independence and friendship.

We don't just wait for words, we meet our clients exactly where they are 🤟✨

Every week is a new adventure at Forest Club!

Continuing these sessions weekly allows our clients to truly settle into the environment. What started as a new experience a few weeks ago has now become the highlight of the week, a space where our clients feel comfortable, curious and connected to the world around them.

From the rustle of the trees to the different textures of the forest floor, these weekly visits provide a sensory-rich classroom like no other 🍃🤟

We are so proud to keep this project running every single week. A continued thank you to The Eveson Trust for their funding and the Wyre Forest team for being such welcoming hosts! 🤝

🧼 Sign of the Week: SOAP 🧼

Our Self-Care Life Skills series continues! This week, we are learning the sign for soap.

Handwashing and personal hygiene are some of the most frequent routines in our day. By consistently using the sign for soap, we help the people we support anticipate these moments and participate more fully in their own self-care. It’s all about making those daily transitions smoother and more communicative! ✨

Watch this week’s video and learn the sign for soap with us! 🤟

Coffee, cake and great company! ☕🍰

We had a wonderful time recently attending the coffee morning at the Lyppard Hub. Being out and about in our local community is such an important part of life at The Myriad Centre.

For our clients, these visits are about so much more than just a change of scenery. They offer a fantastic opportunity to meet new people, socialise and feel a true sense of belonging in the heart of Worcester.

A huge thank you to the team at Lyppard Hub for making us feel so welcome. We can’t wait for the next one! 💙

🪮 Sign of the Week: HAIRBRUSH 🪮

Our Self-Care Life Skills series continues as we look at the tools we use in our daily morning routines. This week’s sign is hairbrush.

Learning signs for personal care items helps the people we support anticipate their grooming routines and encourages active participation. Making these links between the object and the sign is a fantastic way to boost functional communication! ✨

Watch this week’s video and learn the sign for hairbrush with us! 🤟

Sailing season has officially begun! ⛵️

Now that the weather is finally warming up, we are absolutely delighted to be back on the water for our inclusive sailing sessions!

There is a unique kind of freedom that comes with being out on the lake. For our clients with PMLD, these sessions with Aztec Adventure provide a vital opportunity to experience movement, independence and the great outdoors in a safe and supportive environment.

A massive thank you to the team at Aztec Adventure for their expertise and to SpSport Englandor their continued support in making these adventures possible.

We’re ready to make a splash this summer! 🌊💙
