Dingley’s Promise

-

DINGLEY’S Promise is passionate about ensuring every child receives the best start in life. From our centre in Shaw, West Berkshire, we deliver life-changing support to children in the Early Years with Special Educationa­l Needs and Disabiliti­es (SEND), and their families. Offering term time Learn Through Play sessions and holiday playscheme­s for children with a wide range of additional needs, the dedicated staff help children to develop the skills they need to reach their full potential. In a recent parent survey, 97 per cent of families said they felt more confident in supporting their child after accessing our services. And, as a result of our support, 93 per cent of families felt less isolated and 100 per cent felt more positive about the future.

One parent said: “Dingley’s Promise has been an invaluable source of support, comfort and fun for my daughter. They help her to thrive and give her an opportunit­y to develop in her own unique way. I can’t thank them enough for what they do for us all as a family.” Dingley’s Promise can also provide outreach support to any local family with a child aged 0-5 with SEND. Our family support workers offer home visits, walk and talk sessions and 1:1 advice via phone, text, email, zoom or in person. We also run monthly online informatio­n sessions, covering topics such as potty training and sleep, as well as regular Stay and Play sessions for children and families.
