Thanks to a grant from the Frenkel Topping Foundation, one 5-year-old has been able to continue attending gymnastics classes after sustaining a brain injury as a baby. These sessions are about movement, confidence, + joy. “Your support has given her a place to have fun + to grow stronger", says mum

📚 Returning to school after an ABI can feel overwhelming. Every child’s experience is unique, and the right support can make all the difference. We work to ensure children receive the understanding, adjustments, and accommodations they need to learn, participate, and thrive.

The festive season can bring joy, but for many families it also brings pressure, sensory overload, and a fast pace that can feel overwhelming. Try this simple technique: inhale quietly for 4 seconds, hold your breath for 7 seconds, and exhale slowly for 8 seconds. Repeat to reduce tension.
