One Child's Story (by his Dad)

Views from Parents

"Conductive Education has given me the means to help my child."

"Thank you for all your hard work with *****, for always being able  to listen and for all your understanding and support. I know ***** will miss you all... and that he will miss being in a class with so much warmth and love."

"In the beginning, it took two people to get ****** in an upright position, so it was a real milestone when she managed to stand by herself holding her ladderback, albeit for a very short space of time. As her parents, we have come a long way too... We worry, yes, but doesn't every parent? We feel secure in the knowledge that ****** is having the best possible start... and that whatever her potential is, the Centre will give her the greatest opportunity to realise it."

The Hornsey Trust relies on donations from individuals and grant making trusts for the main part of its income and is extremely grateful to all it's benefactors whose generosity enables us to continue working with children and their families where and whenever possible. For further information on supporting the Trust, please visit our donations page.

Views from Visitors

"Watching you with the children has been inspiring."

"The positive attitude of the children and staff is very infectious and I came away from my day with you, feeling very inspired."

"I was very impressed with the quality of the facility... I must honestly say, that the program for the children and families and achievements are the most outstanding  that I have seen."

"I was so impressed with your Centre today... I have often wondered how the parents from my area have the energy and will to drive so far, but having seen the Centre, I guess I now know."

Views from Course Participants

"Great opportunity to learn new skills and share existing ones. Thank you."

"Wonderfully practical! Loads I can take back to use immediately." 

"I am buzzing with ideas. I'll be putting our learning support assistant down for the next course. Thank you."

"...reinforced need to break down tasks into smallest steps. Reinforced central role of child as learner - (active not passive)."
