Take a deep breath.
Inhale peace - exhale happiness.
Breathwork is a cherished part of our Special Yoga practice. It offers a moment to pause, connect and simply be. For our young people, it creates space for togetherness, calm and shared stillness - something truly powerful 🙏

“Non-speaking is not non-thinking.”
Jonathan Bryan’s powerful story challenges assumptions about learners with complex needs. His voice reminds us to always presume potential and raise expectations.

Popped over to meet Kajal & the ICT team @GreatOrmondSt to see the new bedside experience screens. Singing Hands has its very own icon & a collection of our Makaton-signed songs. This means when we are not on the wards, children can still learn & have fun with Makaton 🙌
