Our Centre and Café
In 2014 we proudly opened the doors to our centre. The facilities at the centre include community cafe which is open to everybody, a sensory room with hoist, soft play frame, sensory garden and changing room with hoist. Year on year we have invested, improved the facilities and provided a safe, fun environment to thousands of people across Cheshire East and the surrounding areas.
Community café and soft play
Our community café and soft play is situated on the ground floor. This space has a specially designed sensory and soft play area.
Our rooms
We have an amazing sensory room, a large siblings play room, and a games room. All our rooms have been carefully designed and equipped to help children and families enjoy their time spent with us.
Sensory Garden
The accessible Sensory Garden is outside the Activity Hall and café and, weather permitting, you can sit outside at one of our picnic tables whilst the children play in the mud kitchen, outdoor play area or water challenge game.
