Help Us Create a Sensory Room at St Anthony’s ❤️

We are fundraising to help transform a space at St Anthony’s Centre in Lurgan into a dedicated sensory room for children and young people with additional needs.

As Where We Belong moves to St Anthony’s, we have the opportunity to help create something that will have a lasting benefit for the local community. Our aim is to support St Anthony’s in developing a welcoming, calming and accessible sensory space where children can regulate, explore, relax and feel comfortable.

For many children with additional needs, sensory environments can make a huge difference. Some children can become overwhelmed by noise, light, crowds or unfamiliar surroundings, while others actively seek sensory input to help them regulate. Having a dedicated sensory room gives children somewhere safe to go when they need a quieter environment or some time to reset.

We hope to create a beautiful, welcoming space with soft lighting, sensory equipment, calming areas, tactile resources and interactive features. A space that can be used and enjoyed by children, families and the wider community.

The sensory room will be St Anthony’s sensory room, creating a valuable resource within the centre that can benefit local children and families for years to come.

Every donation, no matter how big or small, will help us bring this vision to life. If you can’t donate, simply sharing our fundraiser would mean so much to us.

Thank you for supporting our vision and helping us create a space where children can feel safe, comfortable, supported and that they truly belong. ❤️
