Working with children, especially those most in need, to provide educational and social benefits.

Children's World provides educational, creative and social workshops in the South West of England with particular attention paid to those with special needs including SLD/PMLD, MLD and EBD as well as mainstream Primary and Secondary children. We provide material that fits the needs of social & emotional aspects of learning with workshops that address bullying, inclusion, peer pressure, risk, self responsibilities & aspirations, relationships etc, in order to increase self respect and esteem.
Why the community needs this charity

Our work increases confidence and raises self-esteem and is aimed at children that have emotional and behavioural difficulties and issues with discipline as well as those with special needs. Our work provides a unique way for children to safely explore their views and feelings towards bullying and anti-social behaviour, for example, which will impact on their understanding and behaviour within the communities in which they live.

Results and outcomes

Our integration and inclusion work shop, for example, enables special needs and mainstream children to work alongside each other and helps remove the stigma of 'special needs' helping mainstream children grow up with a more positive attitude towards 'disability'. By the end of the project, to watch an able bodied child help, of their own volition, a child with, say, autism, paint a puppet or simply have a giggle together - it's magic.
