They do this through providing a number of services including afterschool clubs, holiday clubs, weekend clubs, daytime support for young adults, stay and play sessions for under 5's, a siblings group and a toy library. They were founded in 2009 by two mums of disabled children who were unable to find suitable childcare for their own disabled children. Their current fridges needed replacing and these are a vital part of the food service they provide for the young people who attend. Not only do they prepare lunches for the young people but they also do a lot of cooking and baking on site with them that requires the fridges for food storage. Many of the young people they support also require food that is heated for their lunch and they were finding during busy school holidays that they were not able to prepare everyone's lunches on time. So the new additional microwave will be a great help with this as well as also having the correct wattage to be able to safely reheat the pureed food that some of young people bring with them.
