- Referral Details
We take referrals city wide for targeted intervention, delivered from the Charteris Centre.
Bespoke packages are agreed with referrers regarding targeted interventions, usually as a package of support. These are provided to children and young people from 5 years old up to 13 who may have social, emotional, health or moderate learning difficulties or are on autism spectrum conditions.
Open access play is open to all children age 5-11, but as a universal service, parents or carers will need to accompany those children who require additional support.
You can be referred to the service by a school or other professional and one to one support costs £30 per hour. There is no waiting list. Each referral is considered on an individual basis, in order that a bespoke package can be agreed.
No referral is required for open access play and it is a free service.
