πŸ’œ πŸ’š Today is World Mental Health Day πŸ’š πŸ’œ

Raising a child with special educational needs and disabilities can be joyful, rewarding and full of love.

It can also be exhausting, isolating and overwhelming at times.

Parents and carers of SEND children often put everyone else first, and children and young people with SEND can face extra pressures on their mental wellbeing.

πŸ’œ πŸ’š Your voices and your experiences matter. And you're not alone πŸ’š πŸ’œ

Whether it's a chat with another parent who just gets it, a fun-filled, safe and supportive session for your child, or a moment of respite to breathe again while someone else cares for your SEND child, CHIPS is here for you.

This World Mental Health Day, let’s talk, let's listen, and let's support better mental health TOGETHER.

🫧 What a bubbly day of fun the SEND children we help to support enjoyed at our Ware playscheme recently!

β˜€οΈ The sun shone and the air was full of GIANT bubbles as we welcomed an extra special visitor and her bubbly magic to our club.

The children LOVED watching the bubbles fill the air, blow away on the breeze or pop. They even got to make some themselves.

A huge thank you to our bubble lady for bringing so much joy to our playscheme and to all of our amazing staff and volunteers who make every day at CHIPS so special.

πŸ₯Š Our young people had a jam-packed day using their minds and bodies at our recent Activity Day in Ware.

🀩 The day began with an energetic fitness session with Josh from .training then, after lunch, our young people enjoyed an art session with Deanna from Thrive Art - Buntingford

🎱 And as if that weren't enough for one day, our young people also got to play pool, build Lego and play lots of games and puzzles too.

A CHIPS Activity Day is, well, FULL of activities!
