Transitioning for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities can be challenging, often leading to unwanted behaviours, increased meltdowns and dysregulation. While we may not be able to prevent total dysregulation, we can support young people by preparing them for what's to come using strategies like the ones below.

Feel the pressure lift as you find strategies and fulfil your young person's potential.

Care isn’t one-size-fits-all. For young people, the best care is person-centred, which is shaped around who they are, not just what they need.

Art can be a powerful tool in Occupational Therapy, helping children and young people develop, regain, or maintain skills for everyday activities.

Here are key OT skills supported through art 👇
- Fine motor skills – drawing and painting improve hand-eye coordination and dexterity
- Visual perception – art sharpens pattern recognition, spatial awareness, and visual memory
- Sensory Integration – exploring textures and materials supports sensory processing
- Emotional expression – art offers a safe, non-verbal way to express thoughts and feelings
- Cognitive skills – projects build focus, planning, problem-solving, and decision-making

Incorporating art into therapy makes sessions engaging, meaningful, and goal-oriented.

Take a moment to reflect on how you can support your mental health and enhance your emotional well-being. What positive steps can you take? Maybe it’s going for regular walks, eating more mindfully, reading a good book, or exploring meditation.

As it’s World Wellbeing Week, use this as an opportunity to slow down and prioritise yourself. Carve out some time to pause, breathe, and recharge, because your well-being matters.

We continue to champion a holistic, trauma-informed approach that supports individuals in re-engaging with the meaningful activities that shape their daily lives.

Our client-centred practice prioritises autonomy, choice, and consent, ensuring each young person feels safe, heard, and empowered. We thoughtfully design environments that minimise sensory triggers, allowing for emotional regulation to allow individuals to be their authentic selves.

This enables our clients to build coping strategies, rebuild routines, and regain confidence across a variety of real-life situations.

This powerful campaign aims to challenge stigma, promote inclusion, and allow the voices of individuals with Learning Disabilities (LD) to be heard. It emphasises visibility, dignity, and a person-centred approach

As professionals, parents, and carers, we must ask ourselves:
✅ Are we creating environments where people with LD are seen, heard, and valued?
✅ Are we focusing on strengths and accessibility?

Children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) may experience the world in ways that are different. Remember, different doesn’t mean less; it’s where growth starts.

Every child blossoms in their own time, in their way. We all take different paths with different support, or move at a different pace. With the right environment, encouragement, and understanding, every young person can flourish.

As educators, therapists, and families, it’s our role to nurture their unique strengths and celebrate who they are becoming.

Let’s create a world where all young people are free to grow, thrive, and be themselves.
