If you’ve followed us for a while, you know staff wellbeing is important to us, and you may even know we have our own allotment! It’s a space for fresh air, fresh produce, and a moment to reset.

Allotments promote mental wellbeing, encourage physical activity, and for us they bring a fresh angle on teamwork!

Some more lovely feedback from our FREE 'Understanding your Sensory needs workshops'

Sensory needs can include over-sensitivities and under-sensitivities such as:
💙 Reactions to certain textures, sounds, smells, or lighting
💛 Differences in proprioception (body awareness)
💚 Challenges with the vestibular system (balance and movement)

At Makewell, we know that everyone experiences the world differently—and for many neurodivergent children, sensory processing can have a huge impact on daily life, comfort, and wellbeing.

Our “Understanding Your Sensory Needs” workshop is designed to help you and your child explore their unique sensory profile in a supportive, clinician-led environment.

What to expect:

👉Insight into sensory processing differences
👉Tools to identify your own sensory preferences and challenges
👉Practical strategies to support regulation at home, work, or school

♿ Can You Help Us Help the Ponies? 🐴

We’re on the lookout for a wheelchair, to help our therapy ponies and get them comfortable around mobility equipment.

This training is an important part of making sure our ponies can confidently and safely support riders and visitors who use wheelchairs. 💙

If you have a wheelchair you could donate (working condition, any style) or know someone who might, please get in touch.

Annual ECG & Makewell Sports Day!

The Water Balloon Run and Hoop Skip were neck and neck, keeping everyone on the edge of their seats. But it was Team 1 who surged ahead in the Plank Walk, securing a well-deserved win and lifting the cup! 🏆

Team 2 made an impressive comeback in the Tug of War, showing true grit and determination, but it just wasn’t quite enough to clinch the overall victory.

Thank you clair for organising!

We are so honoured to work with Milton Keynes Council to offer our Therapeutic Horse Sessions.

Not every child connects in the same way and that’s okay! Today’s horse sessions looked a little different for everyone.
🐴 Some enjoyed the calm rhythm of grooming
🚂 One found joy and focus simply watching the trains pass by.

And both choices were perfect.

In our sessions, every child is free to explore what works for them - building confidence, trust, and connection at their own pace.
