Supporting children, young people, adults, families, schools, and professionals through evidence-based occupational therapy, sensory needs, yoga, mindfulness, and neurodiversity-affirming practice.
Understanding strengths, identifying challenges, and creating a pathway for success. Assessments are the foundation of effective therapy. We provide screening and comprehensive occupational therapy assessments to understand how sensory, motor, emotional, cognitive, and functional challenges may be impacting everyday life. Our assessments help children, families, schools, and young adults identify meaningful goals and develop clear recommendations for support.
Personalised support to build skills, confidence, and independence. Following assessment, we develop tailored intervention programmes designed around individual strengths, interests, and goals. Therapy may be delivered through one-to-one sessions, group programmes, home programmes, school-based interventions, and collaborative support with families and professionals.
Helping children understand, regulate, and respond to the world around them. Sensory processing differences can affect participation in everyday activities, learning, relationships, and wellbeing. We provide evidence-informed sensory assessments and interventions to support self-regulation, attention, emotional wellbeing, motor development, and participation across home, school, and community environments.
Expert guidance regarding occupational therapy needs throughout the EHCP process. We provide specialist occupational therapy assessments and reports for Education, Health and Care Needs Assessments (EHCNA), EHCP applications, annual reviews, and appeals. Our reports clearly identify occupational therapy needs and provide practical, evidence-based recommendations to support positive outcomes for children and young people.
Empowering families with practical strategies and confidence. Children make the greatest progress when the important people around them feel supported too. We work collaboratively with parents and carers through coaching, consultation, and practical guidance, helping to create consistent approaches that support development, participation, and wellbeing in everyday life.
Supporting wellbeing, self-regulation, and resilience through mind-body practices. As a unique part of the Kidspire OT approach, Bend and Breathe combines occupational therapy principles with yoga, mindfulness, breathing techniques, and interoceptive awareness. These practices help children and young people develop body awareness, emotional regulation, concentration, resilience, and confidence while nurturing overall wellbeing.
Working together to create inclusive and supportive learning environments. We partner with schools, colleges, and educational settings to help children and young people access learning, participate fully, and achieve their potential. Services may include consultation, assessments, intervention programmes, staff training, environmental adaptations, and collaborative planning.
Building confidence for everyday life. We support young people and adults to develop practical life skills that promote independence and participation within their communities. This may include travel training, shopping, meal preparation, budgeting, self-care, organisation, community access, and vocational skills.
Practical support tailored to your strengths, goals, and lifestyle. We provide person-centred occupational therapy support for autistic adults and individuals with ADHD, Dyspraxia, fatigue-related challenges, Down's syndrome and other neurodevelopmental differences. Our focus is on helping individuals manage daily demands, improve wellbeing, increase independence, and achieve meaningful goals.
Reflective practice, professional growth, and clinical excellence. We offer clinical supervision, mentoring, and professional consultation for occupational therapists, support staff, educators, and other professionals seeking guidance, reflection, and continued professional development.
Equipping staff with practical knowledge and evidence-based strategies. Bespoke training packages are available for schools, colleges, and organisations. Topics may include sensory processing needs, executive functioning skills, emotional regulation, managing fatigue and pain in neuroplastic conditions, behaviour support, occupational therapy strategies, mindfulness, wellbeing, and creating inclusive learning environments.
