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
