A place to play, explore and belong.
Inclusive sensory experiences and SEND support for children, young people and their families.
From sensory play and community events to swimming, sports and specialist support for schools, we create welcoming spaces where everyone can take part in their own way.
More than sensory play.
Sassy is about creating opportunities for children and young people to explore, connect and grow in environments designed with different needs in mind.
Explore in their own way
There is no right way to experience sensory play. Children can touch, move, create, watch, investigate or take their time — building confidence through play that works for them.
Build confidence & connection
Our activities encourage communication, interaction, independence and shared experiences without placing unnecessary pressure on children to participate in a particular way.
Feel welcome & included
Different needs shouldn’t mean missing out. We create spaces and experiences where children, young people and their families can feel comfortable, supported and included.

Big fun. Sensory-friendly spaces. Plenty of Sassy surprises.
Our events give children and young people opportunities to play, create, move, explore and try something new in an environment designed with inclusion in mind.
From sensory sessions and themed activities to discos, community events, swimming and sports, there’s always something happening at Sassy.
Come along, take things at your own pace and enjoy the experience together.
There are lots of ways to get Sassy.
Whether you’re looking for something fun to do as a family, a regular activity or more specialist support, there’s more to Sassy than one type of session.
Sensory Play Sessions
Creative, engaging sensory experiences designed to encourage exploration, imagination and play without pressure.
Sassy Swim & Sports

Sassy Events
From themed sessions and discos to larger community activities, our events bring families together for inclusive Sassy fun.
Proud to work alongside organisations that believe in inclusion.
Together, we’re helping create more opportunities for children, young people and families in our communities.
Every child should have the opportunity to access education.
Sometimes the environment around a child can create unnecessary barriers to learning.
We work alongside schools and education settings to better understand children’s sensory and SEND needs and identify practical ways to support them.
From sensory strategies and interventions to staff training and environmental guidance, our support is tailored to the individual child and the setting around them.
Practical support. Real environments. Children at the centre.
Move, play and build confidence.
Sport and physical activity should feel accessible to everyone.
Sassy Swim & Sports creates supportive opportunities for children and young people to get active, develop skills and enjoy movement without the pressure that can sometimes come with traditional activities.
Whether they’re building confidence in the water, trying a new sport or simply enjoying being active, participation happens at their own pace.
Creating opportunities where they’re needed most.
Sassy Sensory Surprises is a Community Interest Company, which means community impact sits at the heart of what we do.
We work with families, schools, local organisations, funders and community partners to create inclusive experiences and practical support for children and young people.
From funded activities and community events to specialist projects, our aim is always the same:
More opportunities. Fewer barriers. A greater sense of belonging.
