Friends of Cann Bridge Thank Ocean City College for Generous Donation

The Friends of Cann Bridge School are thrilled to announce and express their gratitude to Ocean City College for their generous donation of £500. This contribution has enabled Cann Bridge School to purchase 10 sensory spinning chairs, which will add to the resources available to learners.

Reg Williams, CEO, speaking on behalf of Ocean City College, shared their motivation behind the donation: "As a charity, we at Ocean City College understand the need for helping others and supporting your local community and fellow charities. That's why we were more than happy to offer a donation to help Cann Bridge School purchase sensory chairs needed for their learners and hope that they help to enrich the learners' education and support their progress."

Additionally, Sensory Junction, a key supporter of the initiative who supplied the chairs at a discounted rate, expressed their enthusiasm for the project. "I thought the great fundraiser that Friends of Cann Bridge was doing for the school was such an amazing opportunity for the learners. Giving back to the community is something I like to do."

The sensory spinning chairs will support sensory development and well-being of the learners at Cann Bridge School. These chairs provide numerous benefits, including aiding in self-regulation and improving physical core strength. The spinning motion helps learners with sensory processing disorders to calm and focus, creating an optimal learning environment. Additionally, the physical act of spinning engages the core muscles, contributing to overall physical development and stability.

The Friends of Cann Bridge and Cann Bridge School extend their deepest thanks to Ocean City College and Sensory Junction for their support and generosity. This donation exemplifies the positive impact that community collaboration can have on enriching the lives of learners and fostering an inclusive educational environment.

The Friends of Cann Bridge would appreciate hearing from any individual, group or organisation that can help them with fundraising, however little or big, which all goes to make a real positive difference to the lives of all the children and young people at Cann Bridge School.
