Tiny Tools for Big Feelings CIC is offering a free SEND Family Access & Resilience Project for Wirral families.
This project supports children, young people and families who are experiencing SEND-related stress, neurodivergence, anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, EBSA, sensory overwhelm, isolation or family pressure.
The support is practical, gentle and family-focused. Sessions will include emotional regulation tools, therapeutic art/sensory activities, parent/carer support, sibling inclusion where appropriate, sensory room access, light refreshments and signposting to wider local support.
