Our Preschool Enrichment Programme supports preschool children with disabilities to play, grow and learn in a safe and inclusive environment.
Structured sessions, which can also include preschool siblings, focus on different aspects of development and include sensory experiences, messy play, music and movement and Makaton baby signing. The variety of activities cater to the diverse needs and interests of our children, promoting physical development, social skills, communication, and overall wellbeing. Sessions are also great opportunities for parents to play alongside their children and develop peer support networks with others who understand what can often be challenging situations.
All sessions are provided free of charge.
In 2023-24 we provided over 6,200 hours of activities to preschool children.
Aiming Higher has been amazing for my daughter. She has developed physically and developed her social skills gaining lots of confidence. She continues to learn and really enjoy Jo Jingles . The trips to soft play areas have allowed her to physically challenge herself and she is now walking. When we started attending Aiming Higher my daughter couldn’t sit up unaided. She will continue to develop skills and make friends. Thank you.
Our Preschool Enrichment Programme of events includes music and movement, soft play and Makaton, details of which can be found on our social media pages.

This charity has no idea how much it helps families. Whether it’s Stay and Play getting to know other people or it’s creating days like the Sandcastle to introduce children to water. They have been a huge support! There’s often been times I’ve entered the building on the verge of tears and the staff reassure me and engage with my son and suddenly everything feels just a little bit better. So thank you, Aiming Higher and especially our lovely Ella because without you guys I don’t know where we would be x
