Over the last few months the group have had a great time visiting sensory rooms, Hall Hill Farm, ROF59 and 4Motion.  Watch out for more of their adventures!

A big thank you goes to Darlington Business Club who donated £250 to the group in the Spring.  Emma and Dawn from the group were invited to receive the cheque from Chairman Jayson Guerney.  A great evening was had by all along with a lovely buffet.

Thank you to the Aycliffe Secret Millionaire who presented our group with a cheque for £100 in March 2016.   Again this money will be used to take the children and their families to try out activities to help their sensory issues.

Thank you to the Newton Aycliffe Councillors who donated £420 for the parent support group.  This money will be used to take the children to sensory rooms and other venues that will aid their sensory issues, confidence and self-esteem.
