SENSES (SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS; SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT)

SENSES supports families of pre-school children with additional learning, physical or medical needs in Scarborough and the surrounding area. Qualified and experienced staff run two weekly toddler groups, one in central Scarborough and one in Eastfield. Both provide multi-sensory experiences as well as the opportunity for parent-to-parent supportive relationships to develop.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
