Choose Play are pleased to provide neurodivergent friendly play sessions for the whole family. These sessions are funded by East Lothian Council and are accessible, fun and sensory focussed. We currently run from Wallyford Community Centre which benefits from indoor and outdoor space to play. Parents and carers are welcome to relax, have a hot drink and benefit from peer support. Sessions are supported by friendly Play Workers who have experience in providing accessible play opportunities.
Play opportunities will include things like den building, hammocks, water play, arts, crafts, and sensory play. Children will be able to help plan activities, themes and include their special interests. Sessions are open to any families with neurodivergent children, formal diagnosis is not required.
Contact nicola@elpa.org.uk for more information or click here to register your family. Once registered you will be sent further details of sessions.
Monday sessions – We are currently meeting fortnightly on a Monday evening from 4pm – 6.30pm. Our next sessions are 5th and 19th May and 2nd June. From mid June the room hire at Wallyford becomes a bit tricky so we have decided, in consultation with families to move sessions to a Sunday for the remainder of the year.
Sunday sessions – From Sunday 15th June we will run fortnightly from 11am-1.30pm. More details coming soon.
