About your mentor
The Sensory Spot CIC
We are inclusive of all needs and abilities
The Sensory Spot CIC is a community‑focused, child‑centred organisation dedicated to creating safe, nurturing, and engaging spaces for children with additional needs. We believe every child deserves opportunities to play, explore, learn, and thrive in an environment that truly understands and celebrates their individuality. Our sessions are thoughtfully designed to support a wide range of sensory, emotional, and developmental needs. Through hands‑on activities, sensory play, communication‑rich experiences, and gentle structure, we help children build confidence, develop key skills, and enjoy meaningful connections with others. Our approach blends sensory exploration, communication development, creativity, and play‑based learning. During school holidays, we deliver high‑quality educational and sensory sessions as part of the Department for Education’s HAF programme. These sessions offer enriching activities, opportunities for social interaction, and nutritious meals in a supportive, welcoming environment. Our aim is to ensure that every child can enjoy positive holiday experiences that promote wellbeing, curiosity, and joy. At The Sensory Spot CIC, families are at the heart of everything we do. We work closely with parents and carers to create experiences that feel safe, empowering, and genuinely inclusive because when children feel understood, they flourish.

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.
