We are a charity that provides parents/carers with respite from the challenges the young people present with.  All attendees have special needs, some are able to communicate others have no communication at all.

The young people (between 5-13 years of age) have exclusive use of the Egham Orbit soft play area.  In addition we have reserved seating for snack time and other activities including games, arts and craft.

We are looking for volunteers who enjoy playing with children/young people.  There are opportunities for 1-2-1 interaction and to develop an understanding of special needs.

Brightlights new opening times are 17:45pm to 19:15pm Thursday evening and we would like volunteers to arrive at 17:00 and leave at 20:00.
