A summary
Welcome to the Final Whistle - the home of Holiday and Food Activities for Seasonal Sensory Fun! Celebrate the festive season with engaging food-based activities designed for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. These experiences combine sensory exploration, creativity, and life skills in a relaxed and joyful setting. Whether it's creating festive decorations, making simple snacks, or exploring holiday traditions through taste and texture, each activity is tailored to support learning, independence, and fun. Parents are welcome to stay and join us for the afternoon’s activities. Parents can enjoy quality time with their children while encouraging communication, motor skills, and confidence—all through the magic of food and craft celebration. The day begins with a group gathering to share the day's activities before we move on to inclusive and disability sport, food and craft fun. The day will end with a visit from Santa Claus!

From supporting young people to achieve their potential, to promoting healthier lifestyles, championing inclusivity, and preserving the rich history of our club and region, we aim to create lasting impact. Our work is built on strong partnerships, dedicated staff and the unwavering belief that sport can unite people, break down barriers and open doors to opportunity.

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
