Grant to Springhallow School, West Ealing London


Springhallow School










Springhallow School serves the children living within Ealing that have a diagnosis of autism, a lifelong condition that affects the social and communication development of individuals and may severely impair their interactions with theworld around them.  There is no cure for autism, but education and therapy can and does make a huge difference to the lives of our young people. The school will be able to provide an even more purpose-built experience for our student population in the form of a Relaxation Sensory Trolley System , thanks to the support of the David Tyler Trust.














This trolley is designed to store and transport essential equipment, making it easy to transform a small space into a multi-sensory environment, including Fibre Optic Sensory-In-A-Box Kit and two Visual Sensory Tubs. The trolley can be wheeled into treatment rooms to provide a distraction, used in a relaxation environment for many to enjoy, or used on an individual basis.

Springhallow will use this system to support and shape the lives of young people with autism, so that they leave school ready, confident and able to lead happy and content lives, where they are as independent as they can be and where they are able to contribute to wider society in a meaningful and fulfilling way.
