Our Facilities

The Autistic Spectrum covers a wide range of needs and difficulties, at Sunbeams Community Hub we understand that each child, young person or adult on the spectrum is an individual with their own needs and strengths. We offer all children, young people and adults an equal opportunity to explore a wide range of resources, encouraging skills development, fun and interaction; over two floors, these include;

A wide variety of construction and small world toys from dolls houses, cars, dinosaurs, mega blocks and trains to electronic kits, Lego and Knex.

Imaginative and Role Play; cooking in the wooden kitchen, cafe and shop or dressing up in our wide variety of costumes.

A craft and messy play area to explore play dough, paint, sticking, corn flour, water, sand and much more for tactile experiences.

A large garden area to suit all ages and abilities, football goal, basketball net, parachutes, sensory garden, sand and water play and space to run around, a summer house with soft play area, outside stage and story area.

Although each age group has their own cupboard full of special toys, board and floor games they are accessed by all.

A very well equipped sensory room with bubble tube, fibre optic lights, bean bags, cushions, mirrors, star lights and much more.

For the older young people and adults our first floor room can be accessed by stair lift if required, we have a pool table, Xbox and Wii, large screen for move nights, accessible kitchen for drinks and snacks.
