Exciting news, Aspire Therapy will soon be in a position to offer other services that parents have expressed a need for such as a sensory equipment loan service and sensory play sessions as well as workshops and support around everyday things such as dressing, eating and self-regulation.
Can you spare a few minutes to help us shape these services by completing a short questionnaire? We urgently need as many people as possible (parents, grandparents, foster carers ) who have contact with children and young adults with additional needs to complete our questionnaire. The more responses we have the more funders will recognise that we are meeting a genuine need.

Can you help?
Colchester Children’s Charity who provide an enormous amount of support for children and their families in the Colchester and Tendring area are desperate for volunteers to help keep their charity shop open. Without the shop being open to generate income they will no longer be able to support families in this way. Whether or not you have benefited from the support of the charity please consider if you could offer an hour or two to volunteer at their shop in Old Heath, Colchester so that we can keep this amazing charity going. All enquiries to Roy Kemp 01206 860384.

In line with government guidelines, we are still able to support you.

As a result of the new regulations regarding face coverings a mum had asked if I could provide an exemption card for her child who can’t tolerate face coverings. I have put some together, they all have slightly different wording and have the Aspire Therapy logo on the back. Any other parents who have seen Amy at Aspire Therapy can contact me and I will post some out free of charge. Please let me know which wording you prefer.

Here are some tips on how to help your child regulate their emotions and activity levels. Check out the book ‘Listening to my Body’ by Gabi Garcia. It has some beautiful illustrations and is great for developing self-awareness and opening up opportunities to talk about how your child can identify and communicate their feelings.

Also take a look at the Zones of Regulation at www.zonesofregulation.com
There are lots of visuals available online including some based on the Disney/Pixar film Inside Out. They have a video on YouTube about creating a Zones Check-in for home with lots of creative ideas to engage the whole family. They even have a Zones app!
