SEND activities directory
The SEND activities directory has been developed to provide free and impartial information to families about activities suitable for those with SEND within the local and surrounding area and offered online.
The directory includes services and activities offered by external organisations. Gateshead Council does not endorse, approve or quality‑assure any provider listed. Families and carers should carry out their own checks to confirm that a service meets their individual needs.
You can view this page in another language or listen to it being read out by clicking on the 'listen and translate' button in the top right hand corner.
Do you provide any inclusive activities for children and young people aged 0-25 with Special Educational needs and disabilities?
If you would like your provision to be added to our SEND activities directory, please complete our online registration form (opens new window) and provide information about your provision including information about your offer, dates and times it is available, contact information for the provision, address/location and any other important details such as age range, cost, if food is provided, or if a referral is needed.
It is your responsibility to inform us of any changes if you are added to the directory by emailing [email protected].
