Get ready to soar to new heights! National Children’s Activities Week, the UK’s largest annual celebration of children’s activities and fundraising event!

...

BE PART OF National Children's Activities Week, have fun and explore all the many benefits of different children's activities.

This year, during the week 11th to 17th May, thousands of children and activity leaders will take part in sponsored challenges to raise awareness and fundraise for sensory packs.Ā Ā 

Processing everyday sensory information can be extremely difficult for disabled and neurodivergent children.Ā But Caudwell Children is there to help, with sensory equipment that helps children explore, regulate their emotions, and feel more in control of their world.

For every Ā£137 we raise during National Children’s Activities Week, Caudwell Children can support children and families in their region with this vital sensory equipment.
