ONE WAY A SESSION COULD LOOK
A creative project with a purpose
A young person wants to practise making choices and staying with a task.
Choose their project
They could choose something to make and decide which materials to use.
Work through the steps
We can help break it into manageable parts, talk through decisions and support them to ask for help.
Notice what worked
Together, we can reflect on the process and choose what to try next.
ONE WAY A SESSION COULD LOOK
An outing that builds familiarity
An agreed walk or public-transport journey can be a way to practise planning and navigating a setting.
Prepare together
Choose a suitable plan, look at the route and discuss what to expect.
Practise along the way
The young person could follow a route, recognise a stop or make choices about the activity, with agreed support.
Review the experience
Talk through what became more familiar and what needs another practice.
Planning the cost.
The rate follows the support we agree with you. Your written quote also explains any entry fees, materials or other activity costs.
Planning it together.
How do you choose an activity?
We consider the young person’s interests, goals, willingness and support needs, along with the setting, weather, equipment and practical safety arrangements.
What needs to be agreed before an outing?
We agree the activity, location, supervision, arrival and handover, and any extra costs with the family beforehand. Read our safety and participation information for more detail.
