South Tyneside’s Kids And Young Adults Klub -
Special needs support group or The KAYAKS as we prefer
to be known, is a weekend, voluntary run support group
provided by a dedicated team of volunteers.
We are an independent group who rely on donations and
sponsors to provide a wide range of fun and recreational
activities for special needs children, teenagers and young
adults. While providing practical help, support and advice
from personal experience on “special needs” related
subjects for parents and carers.
Family fun every Saturday!
