Do you have a child with a Special Educational Need or Disability?
The SEND Sharing Service is a Lending Library which creates opportunities for children with additional needs to access a variety of toys and specialist equipment to help encourage families to interact and play together.
The service is available to Swindon based families who have a child/ren with additional needs (these can be diagnosed or undiagnosed needs).
The aim of the service is to support child development through play as well as providing a chance for parents and carers to trial specialist SEND equipment.
Toys by their nature can be short-lived items with a limited lifespan of interest. Our SEND Sharing Service will enable families to browse our catalogue of items which hosts a variety of play and practical resources to encourage more stimulation and chances for sensory play and a wide selection of informative and helpful books for parents and carers on various SEND related subjects.
What are the Benefits of using The SEND Sharing Service?
We can provide you with an opportunity to trial a toy or piece of equipment before committing to an expensive purchase for your home.
We can give you access to a range of sensory, play and therapy equipment, to support and encourage all areas of development.
