Space for Yew is a non profit Community Interest Company founded in 2024 to support neurodivergent adults, children and families. Our mission is to prevent isolation and enhance mental wellbeing. We currently offer the following services; Weekly Family Stay, Play and Learn sessions for families with children aged 0-8 - part of ESCC SEND Local Offer delivered in Ninfield and Etchingham. All sessions are child led with sensory play, arts and crafts, games and informal learning opportunities. We tailor activities to meet the diverse needs of the families attending that week. FREE monthly Coffee & Art mornings are aimed at parents/carers that are neurodivergent or have neurodivergent children. A great opportunity to meet like minded people in a supportive and creative space. We also offer training and wellbeing social sessions throughout the year for all ages. We support children that can't access formal education, that are on part time timetables, awaiting school placements, electively home educated and children that are in school. We are very excited to be launching our new project 'Nature Connections' in Autumn 2025. Staff all have lived and professional experience of neurodivergence including Autism, PDA and ADHD.

Attendee instructions

Parents to stay with children - not a drop off Please dress in clothes that you don’t mind getting messy. Aprons are provided for children Please inform us of any allergies. We will try and tailor the sensory play to meet your child’s needs. For example if we know that your child has a wheat allergy we will make playdoh with wheat free flour. The ingredients that we use will have a “may contain” notice on them. If you have any concerns please contact us prior to the session. Inclusion is extremely important to us and we will do our best to accommodate multiple allergies.
