Why I Love Running Holiday Club ❤️

There’s something truly special about Holiday Club – and every time we run one, I’m reminded exactly why I love doing it.

It’s more than just fun and games (although there’s plenty of that!). It’s the laughter, the little wins, and the big breakthroughs. It’s watching a child who was shy on day one make a new friend. It’s seeing confidence grow with every session. It’s hearing a child say, “I wish every day was Holiday Club.”

I love how inclusive it is – a space where children of all abilities can just be themselves, try new things, and feel proud of what they’ve achieved. Whether we’re getting messy with crafts, running around at sports day, or heading out on an adventure, every session is filled with energy, creativity, and connection.

Holiday Club is a place where:
🌈 Friendships blossom
💪 Resilience builds
🎉 Every child is celebrated for who they are

And behind the scenes? Our incredible team works so hard to make each day fun, safe, and meaningful. It’s a team effort – and I couldn’t be prouder.

At the end of each summer, I’m tired, a bit sunburned, usually covered in glitter… but my heart is full. 💛

I love Holiday Club because it’s a chance to make memories, build confidence, and give children a space to shine – and honestly, I can’t wait to do it all again.

What is a Sober Rave? Let’s break it down! 🪩✨

A sober rave is all the fun of a dance party – without alcohol, pressure, or judgement. It's a safe, inclusive, high-energy event where everyone is welcome to move, express themselves, and just be free.

Think:
💃 Lights, music, and movement
🕺 'Dancing without limitations'
🎶 Great tunes that lift your mood
🌈 A space where everyone belongs – whatever your ability or experience

At SEN Fit, our Sober Raves are led by the amazing Gemma Armes, who creates a space that’s all about freedom, fun, and connection. Whether you’re standing, sitting, swaying, or jumping – there’s no “right” way to dance. You just do you.

It’s not just a party – it’s a feel-good experience that supports mental health, boosts confidence, and encourages self-expression in a completely inclusive way.

Perfect for:
✨ Anyone who loves music and movement – no matter their background

Never been to one? Come try it! You might be surprised how good it feels to dance without pressure, without judgement – and without a hangover. 😉

Join us on 24th July for our Schools out Sober rave 7-9pm. Free to attend. Secure your space by Messaging us below, by DM or emailing info@sen-fit.co.uk.

🌿 Alternative Provision and Mentoring for SEND Students 🌿
Supporting children and young people to grow, thrive, and achieve in a setting built on nurture, trust, and real-world learning.

📍 Primary-Aged Sessions – Tuesdays
📍 Secondary Plus Sessions – Mondays & Wednesdays
📍 SEND Mentoring available Monday to Friday on 1:1 basis

Our small group, high-support alternative provision and Mentoring is designed specifically for children and young people with SEND who benefit from a more nurturing, flexible learning environment.

💚 What We Offer:
✅ Life skills sessions – from cooking and budgeting to shopping
✅ Community visits – learning to navigate the world with confidence
✅ Fitness and movement – improving physical and emotional wellbeing
✅ Calm, supportive spaces – with trusted adults who understand individual needs
✅ Focus on emotional regulation, confidence and independence

💡 We believe nurture is not a 'nice to have' — it’s essential.
For many children and young people with SEND, traditional settings can feel overwhelming. Our provision is built around understanding each learner, meeting them where they are, and helping them develop the practical skills and self-belief they need to move forward.

🌱 When a young person feels safe, understood, and supported — they can grow in every way.
We don’t just teach, we empower. Whether it’s learning to cook a meal, manage their feelings, or step into the community with more confidence, we’re here to help them take those steps — at their pace.

👋 Interested in learning more or making a referral?
Drop us a message or email info@sen-fit.co.uk — we’d love to chat.

One for parents/carers, it can feel scary to think about these things for our SEND children but being informed is better than not, learning helps you to help your child
