Hi,

If you know a child with special needs, this club will be of interest.

The "Within Reach" project meets @ The Goals Soccer Centre,
95, Norfolk Park Rd, Sheffield, South Yorkshire S2 2RU (just off Granville Road) on Mondays and Tuesdays).

Monday is a mixed sport session with many activities such as indoor cricket, basketball, indoor football, general keep fit, etc. The session time is 4pm to 6pm, but some people just attend 5pm to 6pm.

Tuesday is basketball and is 5pm to 6.30pm. Parents / carers can stay if they wish or leave their child for the session.

Both sessions are geared towards children with a wide range of disabilities and have skilled and caring staff. For further information call 0114 273 4625.

Have fun and keep fit!

Hi,

Pretty much anything, autism, downs syndrome, general learning disabilities, attention disorders, etc, etc

Maybe I should have mentioned earlier, "Within Reach" is managed by a department of Sheffield City Council and caters for children with all levels of needs and disabilities.

cheers for that

i will look it up in new yr when i pass my driving test. was looking for somthing like this for my eldest to help her expand her social circle. as you will be aware kids with special needs have difficulty maintaining freindships. great chance for her to socialize and keep fit.
