At Liverpool Occupational Therapy Services, we work with schools to set up skill-focused groups where children can learn important abilities while benefiting from the social experience of working alongside peers.

Some of the groups we run include:
✨ Gross motor skills
✨ Life skills (dressing, cooking)
✨ Handwriting
✨ Growth mindset

Structured, practical, and social – these groups give children the tools they need to make progress and feel confident.

Today is International Literacy Day 2025, a day celebrating how literacy can help us build a more peaceful world ✏️

For children, handwriting is a key part of that journey - helping them express themselves, communicate clearly, and engage with the world around them.

By developing these skills, children aren’t just improving their handwriting, they’re learning to share their ideas, stories, and voices, contributing to a more understanding and peaceful world.

We work with schools and children individually to help them with their handwriting skills as part of our OT services.

📩 If you believe this could benefit your child or your child’s school, then please get in touch via our website https://manchester-occupational-therapy-services.co.uk/contact-lots/

This September marks one year of Liverpool Occupational Therapy Services 💚

Over the past 12 months, we’ve been proud to support children, families, and schools across Liverpool with personalised Occupational Therapy – from building independence and confidence to offering practical strategies for everyday life.

A huge thank you to everyone who has welcomed us, worked with us, and supported us in our first year. Here’s to many more years of making a difference together in our Liverpool and Merseyside communities 🌟

“Isn’t Occupational Therapy just for injury recovery?”

It’s a question we hear a lot and it’s a common myth.

While OT can absolutely help people after injury or illness, paediatric Occupational Therapy is something quite different.

Across Liverpool, we work with children in schools, clinics and homes who might:
🟦 Struggle with focus and attention in the classroom
🟩 Avoid messy play or dislike certain clothing textures
🟦 Find handwriting physically tiring
🟩 Have difficulty with coordination, balance or motor planning
🟦 Need support managing emotions or daily routines

Our role is to help children build the skills they need for everyday life - things like getting dressed, joining in at playtime, concentrating in lessons or eating with more independence.

Using movement, play and sensory-based strategies, we gently support confidence, self-awareness and ability. Sessions are fun, practical and completely tailored to the individual child.

So no, it’s not just about recovery. It’s about growth, independence, and creating the right support for every child to thrive.

Sometimes parents aren’t sure when to reach out for OT support. Here are a few signs we often look for:

✍️ Finds handwriting tiring or avoids it
🤾🏼‍♀️ Struggles with coordination (e.g. tripping, dropping things, avoiding playground equipment)
👚 Dislikes messy textures or clothes that feel “funny”
😣 Difficulty focusing for more than a few minutes
🪥 Avoids self-care tasks like brushing teeth or getting dressed

Early intervention doesn’t mean something is wrong. It just means there’s support available to make things feel easier.

If this sounds familiar, feel free to get in touch for a conversation.

Summer in Liverpool offers some lovely low-cost, sensory-friendly options for families looking to keep things calm.

A few of our favourites:
🔹 Sefton Park in the early morning – quiet paths and nature sounds
🔹 Storybarn’s sensory storytelling sessions (check ahead for availability here - https://www.thereader.org.uk/visit-calderstones/the-storybarn/ )
🔹 LUSH UK Liverpool’s quiet hours for gentle, sensory exploration (https://www.lush.com/uk/en/a/lush-quiet-hours )
🔹 At-home water play with washing-up bowls, sponges and bubbles

Not every day needs to be busy - gentle days can offer just as much joy ✨

As our service year comes full circle, we’re preparing to return to schools and family settings in early September.

If you’d like to discuss support for the new school year, we are available to discuss this with you now. Whether you're a SENCO, teacher, parent or carer, we’d love to hear from you.

We’re proud to have spent the past year working with so many brilliant children and families and we can’t wait to continue in 2025.

Heading into September, many families feel a mix of excitement and nerves.

If your child finds transitions difficult, here are some gentle, OT-informed tips to make the back-to-school period smoother:
📅 Reintroduce familiar routines - start moving bedtime and wake-up earlier gradually
🎒 Practise key skills like putting on uniform, opening lunch boxes and packing bags
📖 Use visual supports or social stories to talk about what’s coming
💬 Keep expectations low and connection high - emotions might run high and that’s okay

The return to school doesn’t need to be perfect. It just needs to be supported.
