For a while now, I’ve been quietly working behind the scenes on a massive dream: turning The SEN Vibe Check | Inclusive London Family Days Out into a fully searchable mobile app directory for SEN families across the WHOLE of the UK!

Imagine no more endless scrolling through old posts. Just pure, instant filters for sensory rooms, quiet hours, and accessible venues exactly when and where you need them.

But this isn’t just about making life easier for us as parents. This app is designed to solve a huge problem for the businesses running these events, too.

Right now, so many amazing companies put time and effort into creating SEN-specific mornings or relaxed sessions, but they struggle to get the word out. Because they don’t get enough exposure, those vital events sometimes get cancelled. 💔

Our app will change that completely. By creating a dedicated space for them to list what’s on, we give them massive exposure to the exact families who need them. More people seeing them means packed events, which means companies will be highly incentivised to run MORE SEN events, more often! 📈🙌

But here is the honest truth... I recently got quoted £8,000 to have a professional developer build this UK-wide system. As a small creator, that is a huge mountain to climb.

The good news? I’ve found a way to completely self-build a basic version of the app myself using no-code tools! It will take a lot of my own hours of which are tough to find in this house and some tech-learning, but I am determined to do it for this community. 🛠️❤️

HOWEVER... I would love to give our community the absolute best, most professional version possible from day one.

So, I’ve set up a GoFundMe (Link in Bio! 🔗).

If we hit our goal, a professional team builds the dream app. If we don't quite make it, every single pound raised will go directly toward covering the software hosting costs and map database fees for the version I build myself. Either way, this app IS happening!

If this page has ever helped your family find a safe space, please consider chipping in the price of a coffee to help us launch UK-wide. ☕https://www.gofundme.com/f/uk-sen-events-directory

So my son is obsessed with freshly squeezed orange juice so much so he learnt the signs to ask for it and nothing else will do 😅🍊 what has your child got addicted to lately?!

8 hours with just one battery bulb light, he is scared of the dark. No tablet. Couldn't see to play with his toys. We spent the whole time singing nursery rhymes songs, me telling him fairy tales like the three little pigs and playing one potato two and other retro games from before technology advanced and honestly that was so lovely. Had to keep him stimulated or he'd been climbing the walls but I'm so proud of how he coped, unlike my freezer food..

💛 If your child can't cope with busy places, this could be a game changer for the school holidays…
For some of our children, the thought of going to a busy soft play or crowded attraction is just a complete NO.
They might not want other children near them. They may become overwhelmed by noise and people, run off, or throw things when they're dysregulated making busy environments incredibly stressful and sometimes unsafe.
And when you're a parent of a child with additional needs, it can feel like your choices are either risk the chaos or stay stuck at home for six weeks. 😔

But what if you could hire an entire sensory room just for your child and your family?

Sense of Play Sensory Room – Dartford
This purpose-built sensory room is designed to be a calm, engaging space where children can explore, relax and play through sensory experiences. What really caught my attention is the option to book the whole room privately, meaning your child doesn't have to navigate a busy room full of other children.
It could be a way to get out of the house and have some fun without the stress of trying to make your child fit into an environment that simply doesn't work for them.
There are also other sensory-focused spaces around London and Kent worth looking into, including SENPLAY in Colindale, which has dedicated sensory play and multi-sensory rooms.
🌿 Terence Brown Arc in Newham particularly caught my eye because it has a multi-sensory room as well as a sensory and edible garden, giving children the opportunity to explore sensory experiences both indoors and outdoors.
For children who prefer being outside, sensory gardens can be a lovely alternative to busy parks and attractions, offering opportunities to explore nature, textures and smells in a more relaxed environment
