one to one support
"I have gained an enormous amount of experience as a volunteer. When I first went to the activity with my matched child he did not join in much but now he joins in all the time, I have really seen him develop through his experience, I am proud to be part of that."
Creative playing
‘After completing the training I was a bit nervous about meeting my matched child, but it did not take long before I built up a really good relationship with him. I love helping him, he is always so pleased to see me.’
