Brief summary and purpose of the grant
To provide sensory aids to families with children with additional needs/neurodiversity including (ADHD) and Autism.

Braintree district residents are struggling with the cost of living, and they would like to support them with sensory aid packs for children to play and develop with.

Families who cannot afford such toys are likely to experience their children becoming dis-regulated at daily situations in schools, busy/noisy places and home is their safe space to expel feelings with overwhelm.
