Each year many volunteers from all over Great Britain and beyond head out to Little John’s House for the annual summer school. Throughout the summer months, Little John’s House opens its doors to offer fun, activity and respite for children and young adults with additional needs from the local community. Each day for a week at a time. thirty or so children are transported in from local hospitals, orphanages and individual families, with many of the same children returning year on year.
They take part in enriching experiences involving social interaction, experimental play, observational learning, music and art therapy. For many of these children this is the only stimulation they get and for some parents/carers, the only break they have.
You may be an individual wanting to attend Summer School on your own or you may be part of a group that want to attend together. We welcome everybody who has the common aim of wanting to help.
For more information on attending Summer School, please contact Mags or one of the trustees, all of whom will be more than willing to help.
