Saturday Club (Halton, St Helens)

Vibe’s Saturday Club is a fortnightly session in both Widnes and Runcorn for young people aged between 12-18 years and have Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) and live within the Halton Borough. An activity and friendship group for young people in Halton. Attendance by referral only through the Halton Short Breaks Service for Children with Disabilities.

The delivery plan is flexible and adaptable to ensure the young person’s needs remain our priority. Working with partners and families we will ensure any EHCP or PBS Plan is included in the designing of options, to ensure any outcomes focus on these as well as providing social opportunities and a combination of stimulating activities that are safe, fun and provide opportunities to develop essential life skills.

Sessions can be adapted to meet the individual needs of the young person. The offer is structured to ensure that groups have equal access to opportunities, with activities simply adapted to accommodate young people’s individual needs.
