    Iʼve raised £465 to Buy a sensory tent and lights for children with special needs, specifically children with autism.

    Story

    Trying to raise enough money for Stalham preschool to have a sensory tent installed by beginning of September 2017 term. This will help children with special needs deal with sensory issues. I hope you will give what you can. Even if it's only a few pounds here and there it all adds up. Thank you!

    Leo is diagnosed with autism. At the moment he is in a mainstream preschool, with cuts to the budget and other factors his experience at times can be traumatic.
    People on the spectrum live in a completely different world to ours, simple everyday things we do can be a huge challenge.
    Leo is none verbal, he communicates by pointing at pictures for his basic needs. He can't tell anyone he's uncomfortable, distressed, or things are just too much for him. He will make gestures, or scream a shuddering high pitched wail.
    Recently he's been dragging children out of the Wendy house then pushing his one to one care away looking for solitude as things have become too much for him.
    Leo is not alone with sensory issues, although very common in children with autism it's not restricted to the condition. A lot of children with special needs have this need.
    A sensory tent, blackened out and fitted with glow lights can be a massive help. it's a proven calming measure.
    I am trying to raise £500 which will pay for a sensory tent and lights to be used by many children now and in the years to come. I am hoping people will help to crowdfund this project.
    Please give what you can. Thank you! The link is below, and if you can share this, it would be greatly appreciated.
