Achievements and Performance
SORP ref&r&nc
Summary oflhe main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the differen￿ the
charity's work has made lo
the circumslances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.
We run Multi-sensory Health and Well-
being sessions. The 'Hand and Sky"
program is for Early year and Primary age
children with PMLD (Profound and multiple
Learning Difficulties) where it is run one
day a week in a Special Needs School. We
run a combination of individual and group
sessions here. A further program is run in a
Children's Centre for Early Year children on
the Autistic Spectrum. We work together
with the School Carers and in the
Children's Centre, with Parents. In these
sessions we use different modalities
including Movement, Play, Music and
Therapeutic Touch and guide Carers and
Parents in the careful and nuanced use of
these ways of making contact with a child
under their care. We come to understand
each particular child through these weekly
half hour or 40 minute sessions. We have
seen children grow in confidence and in
their sense of entitlement lo share what
interests them with significant adults and
with one another in the group sessions. It is
also a space for Carers, Parents and other
family members to relax and have fun with
this child, joining in to create something we
all value together whilst taking the lead
from the Child. We see that this approach
allows Carers and Parents to celebrate the
special qualities about their child and to
have our Practitioner witness their unique
and special way of relating. We learn from
this child whilst encouraging in them a
wider scope of experience and
communication through gesture, sound-
making facial expression, rhythm of
movement, qualities of touch and pause.
Working in this way our Practitioner sees
and is told through verbal and written
feedback, the value of Ihis approach for
Parents and Carers. The children, many of
whom are pre-verbal, show through their
excitement to be in the sessions and week
by week, through changes in their muscle
tone, spontaneous displays of feeling
states both when they are happy and
frustrated and affection, a more lively and
varied sense of
resence. The
become
Para 1.20

more fluid and sofler in their bodies with a
wider repertoire of choices in their play and
a sense Ihat they can rest when they need
to. We feel these sessions may help to
allow different ways of being together
outside of individual achievement and
competition and can foster a mutual
respect and interest across diversity in
race, age, disability, achievement and
vulnerability. It can address the isolation
that children with Special Needs come to
feel as they get older and that their Carers
and Parents come to feel on their behalf in
this Society through their daily experience
of being excluded from cultural and leisure
pursuits because of their different sensory
and physical needs. For our Charity this
program, "Hand and Sky" is a form of
Practice Research in simple shared
activities that bring people together from
different walks of life. 11 is a continuation of
our Garden Project whiGh is where the
name Memory Gardens came from.
