Check my child's compatibilityThe organisation relies on a structured team of activity coordinators, support workers, and volunteers to keep sessions interesting and varied. According to the official website, the service has recently moved to larger premises in Hempsted, Gloucester. Families should be aware that the provider is currently fundraising to install a lift for first-floor access and to improve the rear fire exit area, which may affect accessibility for some users in the short term.
For those unable to travel to the centre, SHARP also offers an outreach service that can bring support directly to the client. Published Google Place opening hours for the venue run from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM on most weekdays, extending to 8:00 PM on Thursdays, though the site is closed on weekends. Because these venue hours are not confirmed as specific session times, carers will need to contact the provider to verify exact schedules and availability.
Furthermore, prospective families will need to inquire directly regarding session pricing, funding options, and specific age requirements, as these practical details are not currently published. To discuss individual needs or arrange a visit, the team can be reached by telephone on 01452 698480 or via email.
