We support children in the early years with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) to achieve their full potential.
This Year I'm for the 1st year ever, I will be doing a few Special DP Walkabouts based on there history etc. They were formed in Reading at Battle Hospital, became a charity and are starting to spread around the country, starting in the South with 12 Centre & their HQ is in Newbury. More details at - https://dingley.org.uk/about-us/
2nd main charity – Green Health - They are a mental health charity that work with adults in a number of ways. Members may start with one-to-one teaching, and if comfortable, may then graduate to small groups, usually containing a maximum of 4 people. Our Therapeutic Horticulture Lead teaches horticulture skills at a pace that suits the individual. I have known Charlotte for several years and we have made all sorts of donations to them, from gardening equipment to a wishing well when we downsized. They refurbished it as a project & it stands in there garden. Based in Whitley, Reading - https://greenhealththamesvalley.org.uk/what-we-do/
