Multisensory Days
for adults with complex and multiple
learning needs

We sponsor and create big themed day-long events for children and adults built around the five senses.  This May we will once again transform West Park hall into a haven of stimulating sights, sounds and scents.  Our multisensory day for adults is Thursday, 17 May.

Watch this space for more information.

Off By Heart perform at Saltaire Festival

The Off By Heart Choir recently took part in the Saltaire Festival. We sang in a choral concert in the final week of Saltaire's annual celebrations. We sang 'Oh What a Beautiful Scene' with Chris Hill as a soloist, and 'I Can See Clearly Now.' We were surprised and delighted when the audience started to clap along. We went
down a storm: audience members and singers from the nine other participating choirs congratulated our performance, saying it lifted the concert.

Other opportunities for adults include the Town Hall Christmas Carol Concert and the YAMSEN Art Competition.
