Lotus Links is a voluntary peer support group offering emotional support to parent/carers of SEND children that experience violent anxiety-led behaviours.We meet fortnightly term time only and offer a space for parent/carers to share their experiences without blame or judgement. Connecting with other parent/carers that understand can prevent social isolation and remove the stigma surrounding this issue.

Additional Needs Advice Mental health and wellbeing support

I work with families who are navigating the SEND system and support them to break down the barriers that are often put in place by schools and LA’s. There is hardly ever a quick fix, it’s a journey like no other but my aim is to armour parents/carers with practical advice and the strength to carry on the fight. Currently funded support available through a Lottery Grant.

The Beamsley Project Charitable Trust has over 25 years experience in providing self catering holiday accommodation for groups and families with additional needs. We cater for all needs however complex with our specialised facilities allowing us to welcome schools, community groups and family gatherings. We lovingly converted Beamsley Methodist Church which now offers a base, so our guests can tailor their holiday or short break to suit their individual needs. Our guests are at the heart of everything we do and its our mission to ensure they can enjoy a holiday exploring the Yorkshire Dales without having to worry about whether the accommodation is suitable.

Our paediatric therapists can arrange assessments with companies who specialise in paediatric equipment and offer advice on how to purchase products. If statutory funding is not available, our therapists are happy to write a report to support charity applications for funding. The centre also provides a service called Switches 4 Kidz, whereby we provide impartial information, advice and assessment about adapted toys and switches for children, families and professionals and the centre has developed a loan library of adapted toy and switches for families to borrow. Following on from this we provide assessments for accessing games consoles, computers, iPads, phones etc. and run regular accessible gaming drop in sessions during school holidays.
