East Lothian Special Needs Playscheme

The 'East Lothian Special Needs Playscheme is one of the most rewarding things I have ever achieved in my life to date. I volunteer and help children with special needs enjoy life and have fun with the condition they have. The playscheme is available to children who have a broad range of conditions. I have also made some incredible friends from there and hope they will be in my life for a long time. 

There are many different activities that go on at Playscheme, including swimming, the bouncy castle, indoor playtime, the art room, sensory room, and outside play like Basketball etc, they also go trampolining, go horse riding, go on bus journeys, go to adventure parks and go to the park. 

Playscheme is a great experience for the kids with special needs as it gives them a chance to feel like they can fit in and mingle with other kids who suffer from similar disabilities to them. It is also great work experience for the helpers to to see what it is like to handle kids with Special Needs and to see if they would like to do this for a living. To volunteer you have to be older than 15 to apply. 
Message me at famereviews@blogspot.com if you live in the East Lothian area of Scotland and are interested in this sort of work. It is definitely worth a try! :)
