We believe every child deserves the chance to thrive.

Our movement-based sessions combine gymnastics and play to support children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) in a fun, inclusive, and empowering environment.

Sessions are held at Leigh-on-Mendip Memorial Hall, and families from Leigh-on-Mendip, the surrounding villages, Frome, Shepton Mallet, and nearby areas of West Somerset, BANES, and Wiltshire are welcome to join.

We design every session for children/young people of all abilities, including those who are neurodiverse or have additional needs. Activities focus on building confidence, coordination, strength, and regulation, while making movement enjoyable and accessible.
