ЁЯОД Christmas and Children with Additional Needs ЁЯТЬ
For families like Aimee-Leigh MahoneyтАЩs, the festive season can feel isolating. Noise, lights, and crowds can be overwhelming for children with additional needs like autism (ASD) and ADHD.
Aimee-LeighтАЩs six-year-old son Harry-Jude struggles with sensory overload at events like Christmas markets or SantaтАЩs grottos, making this time of year challenging.
Every child deserves to experience the magic of Christmas, and itтАЩs time for these spaces to become the normтАФnot the exception.
