*Please note these holidays are not funded via Essex Short Breaks*
We can accept payments from Personal Budgets but we advise you to discuss this with your social worker.
We have been running our trips to a caravan park in Lowestoft for a number of years now and we just know that you will have the best time!
Through SEND Sensation we secured the Essex County Council Short Breaks contract funding for the next 3 years to deliver clubs and activities for children aged between 6 - 18. We do this across Mid and North Essex in Colchester, Clacton, Chelmsford, Braintree and Maldon. We provide after school and school holiday clubs at special needs schools.
SEND Sensation is a partnership of locally trusted organisations that promote a level playing field and positive experiences for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities.
Uniquely, SEND Sensation offer choice through a wide range of community clubs and activities to help children and young people flourish socially, independently, and safely. We have come together to provide venue-based clubs and community-based activities with specialist staff and facilities to support children and young people with learning disabilities and autism, physical and sensory impairments, special educational needs and disabilities.
Our approach is to combine professional experience with lived experience to dynamically evolve this service through co-production, co-operation, and a combined effort to change the landscape of community clubs and activities for children and young people and their family.
