I used to have thousands of worries, but you helped me and now I only have a hundred or so left.

Therapy Clubs

 

Sussex Children’s Centre runs Rainbow of therapy clubs for pre-school, and school age children in term time who will benefit from specialist  help with:

  • Handwriting
  • Motor Coordination
  • Language skills
  • Social and Friendship
  • Attention and Listening
  • Sensory Processing

 

The clubs are a way to make therapy fun, whilst providing the necessary therapy to help children improve and develop. It is also a much more cost effective way to ensure that children receive the help they need. The clubs are deliberately kept at no more than 4-6 children so that your child has the opportunity of learning with others whilst receiving the individual input they need.

 

An experienced therapist will be running the club. The numbers are limited to  about four children  per group to ensure individualised input for every child.  Clubs will run once a week and every session will last 40 minutes. At the end of the term, parents and carers can meet with the therapist to discuss your child’s individual progress.
