              Out of School Activities
I hope that everyone is doing OK and looking forward to the Easter Break. Lot’s of information this time about
both online activities and plans for actual activities when clubs and venues are able to reopen.

We have a larger than ever family information fair planned for the 17th of June. Please save the date! More
information and a list of who will be there is on page 2. Children in school will be supported by their class
teams and parents and carers are encouraged to join virtually from home.

                                              Have you heard of Skiggle??

                                             Skiggle is a registered charity providing help and support to disabled people,
                                             their families and carers. We’re the only disability charity of its kind in the UK,
                                             and we exist to help people in unexpected and urgent times of need because
                                             you never know when something essential might be forgotten, go missing, or
                                             need immediately replaced.
                                             Skiggle fund and operate a unique round-the-clock SOS emergency alert
                                             service providing a place for people to turn to if they urgently need a piece of
                                             equipment, feed, or disability care product.
                                             All you need to do is sign up to join the Skiggle community - it's free - and if
                                             someone within your geographical area puts out a call for help, you will be
alerted and could provide a lifeline for another person in the disabled world. You never know when you might need
someone’s help yourself.
Skiggle also runs an online marketplace where people can safely donate and distribute disability care products and
equipment and a Facebook forum where people can join our friendly community for daily help, support and advice.
